His early success in music led to an Academy of Country Music nomination for Top New Male Vocalist. Shortly after, tragedy struck again, when Bryan’s sister, Kelly, died suddenly at home in 2007, with medical officials unable to determine her death. After the tragedy, Bryan made his fans wait another two years for Tailgates & Tanlines, which was an album that saw four singles land in the Top 5 of the country charts. It wasn’t long before Bryan found true crossover success. Bryan picked up his first Country Music Association Award win in 2014 as Entertainer of the Year. Bryan has recently released his fifth studio album, Kill The Lights, in August 2015.
