Probably fishing is my first passion.

Every night before bed, I rub my wife's feet. She says they're the best foot rubs on Earth.

Anytime you have a fellow artist say, 'Loving the new Luke Bryan album,' that's awesome.

There's always gonna be guys who are just wonderful singers and probably shouldn't be writing songs. Then there's always gonna be guys who move up the ranks writing. I don't know what's healthier or what's the best thing - probably whatever yields the best songs.

I thought being on stage was an amazing feeling, but there is nothing that can top watching my wife bring our son into this world.

From my dad I learned to be good to people, to always be honest and straightforward. I learned hard work and perseverance.

When the show opens, fans can text to a number we flash up on the screen, and then we do a meet-and-greet with 60 to 80 people every night. It's something I love doing, and I would say that's probably more fans than most artists bring backstage after a show.
