Today, multi-Platinum country rocker Brantley Gilbert announced his seventh studio album, TATTOOS (The Valory Music Co.), arriving on Friday, September 13. To celebrate, he will headline a free multi-artist concert that evening in downtown Nashville as a part of FREEDOM FRIDAY events kicking off the Big Machine Music City Grand Prix weekend (September 13-15). Billed as BRANTLEY GILBERT’S “WORLD’S LARGEST ALBUM RELEASE PARTY,” presented by 1st Phorm Energy, the event will also spotlight Big Machine’s “Cavalcade of Stars.” With additional partnership from Rousch, Polaris, and Modern Buggy, the 4th annual FREEDOM FRIDAY event celebrates military and first responders.
“There’s no better way to celebrate the release of Tattoos than a massive party with BG Nation on Broadway,” shares Gilbert. “We’re pulling out all the stops to guarantee an unforgettable experience, and we might even have a few surprise special guests up our sleeves. Y’all won’t wanna miss it!”
With his dedicated BG Nation behind him, the fiery performer has racked up more than 8.3 billion career streams, boasting back-to-back Platinum albums and seven No. 1 hits, including the RIAA 7X Platinum “Bottoms Up;” 2X Platinum “Country Must Be Country Wide;” 2X Platinum “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do;” 2X Platinum “One Hell of An Amen;” and the Platinum-certified “What Happens In A Small Town” (with Lindsay Ell). But despite the mainstream success, his defining trait has been fierce independence – a quality you can’t fake in front of country fans. TATTOOS just adds to the picture. Featuring 10 songs all co-written and co-produced by the Georgia native, with a trusted cast of long-time collaborators, the set matches Gilbert’s ink in both striking design and depth of meaning. Through flowing curves and jagged lines, shadow and light look back on a life of blue-collar pride and full-throttle rebellion – along with addictive love, abiding faith, and blessings beyond what any of us deserve. The result is an electrifying mix of in-your-face aggression and roughneck reflection, as Gilbert delivers another full-spectrum soundtrack to modern country life. The project’s lead single “Over When We’re Sober” with Ashley Cooke is currently climbing the country radio charts after being No. 1 most added upon its debut last month. TATTOOS is available for pre-order here.
The FREEDOM FRIDAY concert honors members of the military, police, fire, first responders, and frontline heroes kicking off the 4th annual Big Machine Music City Grand Prix’s festival of motorsports and music. The 160th Special Ops Aviation Regiment will perform a helicopter aerial demonstration and a pre-concert flyover by the 101st Airborne Division.

ABOUT BRANTLEY GILBERT: As one of the godfathers of Country’s modern rock-and-rap edge, multi-Platinum The Valory Music Co. trailblazer Brantley Gilbert knows life has a way of leaving a mark. With his seventh studio album, TATTOOS, set for release September 13, the Georgia native chooses to embrace it – inspired by the idea that his tattoos tell a story, just like his songs. And just like his songs, he’ll never hide the truth they reveal. An era-defining artist forever bonded to his fans, Gilbert’s been mining the timeless values of hard-working dedication, high-octane thrills and humble faith since his 2009 debut, A MODERN DAY PRODIGAL SON, creating a chart-topping grit-and-grace fusion which helped set the stage for today’s genre-blending format. With his dedicated BG Nation behind him, the fiery performer-songwriter has racked up more than 8.3 billion career streams, boasting back-to-back Platinum albums and seven No. 1 hits including the RIAA 7X Platinum “Bottoms Up;” 2X Platinum “Country Must Be Country Wide;” 2X Platinum “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do;” 2X Platinum “One Hell of An Amen;” and the Platinum-certified “What Happens In A Small Town” with Lindsay Ell. His world-class pen helped create a watershed hit with Jason Aldean’s 4X Platinum country-rap game changer, “Dirt Road Anthem.” Possessing a can’t-fake-it quality of fierce independence, the ACM, CMA and AMA award winner has toured alongside everyone from Willie Nelson and Toby Keith to Kenny Chesney, Nickelback, and more. TATTOOS further cements his legacy – 10 co-written, co-produced tracks with an electrifying mix of in-your-face aggression and roughneck reflection, as Gilbert’s diesel-powered smoke-and-soul vocal delivers another full-spectrum soundtrack to modern country life. Tracks, like full-throttle “Off the Rails” and intoxicating chart-climbing single “Over When We’re Sober” with Ashley Cooke, lead a set packed with guest appearances from Gary LeVox, Justin Moore, and OFF THE RAILS TOUR mates Struggle Jennings and Demun Jones, as the superstar headlines across the U.S. through October 2024.
