CURRENT SINGLE: “Hard Days”
If you judged Brantley Gilbert by his tattoos and all black attire, his biker buddies and his general appearance, you might miss the fact that behind all of that, Brantley is a sweet guy with his heart wrapped firmly around his two little kids’ fingers. “They’re my smile, they’re my heart, they’re my whole world,” he says.
Brantley expects that as his kids get older, he’ll find activities he can enjoy with them, but for now they have the attention span of … well, a one and a three year old. So for now, rhe says, “I kinda follow their lead a lot of times. My little boy, he’s three, I bought him a T-ball set, a bucket of balls and stuff. And he’ll key into it and he’ll hit for about maybe a minute, and then he’s off to somethin’ else. And my little girl’s much the same way.”
Rather than trying to convince his son and daughter to play with certain things or do certain activities, Brantley says, “I’m still kinda followin’ them, lettin’ them do their thing and klnda seein’ how I fit into their world a little bit.”
At the end of the day, all Brantley cares about is being the best father he can be, because he says, “I’ve been a lot of things in my life. I’ve been a biker, a singer, just a lot of things, but being a dad is by far my favorite thing that I’ve ever been.”
Brantley Gilbert – time with kids :34
“I kinda follow their lead a lot of times. My little boy, he’s three, I bought him a T-ball set, a bucket of balls and stuff.

At one and three, I’m still kinda followin’ them, lettin’ them do their thing and klnda seein’ how I fit into their world a little bit, I guess. But they’re my smile, they’re my heart, they’re my whole world. I’ve been a lot of things in my life. I’ve been a biker, a singer, just a lot of things, but being a dad is by far my favorite thing that I’ve ever been.”
