Country Musician - Jacob Bryant
The Brighton Center for the Performing Arts presents Jacob Bryant on Friday, November 8 at 8:00pm. Tickets are $25-$35, and can be purchased at BrightonPerformingArts.com or call (810) 299-4130.
Nashville’s best kept secret, Jacob Bryant is releasing his first single, “ AMEN,” to Country Radio. Lauded by PEOPLE Magazine as a “country star who is singing from experience,” the powerhouse vocalist continues to break the mold as a new artist. Bryant has a sound that blends the narrative aspects of country with the kick of southern rock. Through a series of independent EPs and relentless touring, Bryant has built a solid cult following displaying his honest, lived-in lyrics. The rural North Georgia native has earned his stripes playing honky tonks, auditoriums, fairs, and made his Grand Ole Opry debut this past February.
