“Tailgates & Tanlines” Story Revealed

Luke Bryan’s latest CD is titled, “Tailgates & Tanlines.”  So how did Luke come up with the name?  There is no song on the album with that title.  Luke told Country Countdown USA’s Lon Helton the secret source of the album’s title: “I was goin’ down the road, and my manager texted me, ‘Album title: Tailgates & Tanlines.’ And I said, ‘Where’d you get that?’  And the head of my label’s promotion department came up with it.  And it’s a long shot for me to sign off on it.  So I see it, and then the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was a great album title.”

So now that Luke made Tailgates & Tanlines as his album’s title, he tells Lon that work has now begun to write a song by that name: “We’ve already got things in place where we’re working on that title, so hopefully it’ll be on the next album.  I think thematically what that title says, and we refer to tailgates in a few songs, but it says youth and rural and everything I want an album title to say.”
