Brian Kelley Biography, Age
Brian Kelley was born in Ormond Beach, Florida, on August 26, 1985. His parents, Ed Kelley and Mary Margaret Kelley, also raised his older sister, Katherine Kelley. When Brian was a young boy, baseball was his first love. He also liked to write.
But as he got older and his taste and senses improved, he started to love music and play the guitar passionately. At the same time, his sister Katherine showed him how to enjoy country music. The more he liked baseball, the more he liked the genre.
The young athlete went to Seabreeze High School, where he was a star on the Sandcrabs baseball team. At the same time, he was also the worship leader at his church. In 2004, when he graduated from Seabreeze High School, he got a scholarship to attend Florida State University, where he played baseball.
As Brian’s career as a baseball player began to take shape, the Miami Marlins told him at the last minute that they were going to draft him. He turned down the chance to play professionally, though, because he realized he would spend most of his time sitting on the bench. He then moved from Florida State University to Belmont University, where he could focus on his music career.

Brian Kelley Career in Music
While he was at Belmont University, he met Tyler Hubbard, the other half of the duo Florida Georgia Line. A mutual friend brought the two together, and when they found out they both liked music, they got to know each other quickly.
After they both graduated from Belmont University, they moved in together and started running their music careers as a team. As a group, they needed a stage name that reflected where Brian and Tyler were from (Florida and Georgia, respectively).
So, they chose the name Florida Georgia Line for their band. The band’s first EP, “Just Like Me, came out in 2010. It didn’t get much attention, but it did catch the attention of Nickelback producer Joey Moi. They released their second EP, That’s Exactly What We Do, in 2012. This time, major record labels took notice.
In the same year, they released their first single, Cruise the First Satellite Radio on the Highway, which did well on iTunes and helped them get their first contract with Republic Nashville/Big Machine Label Group. On the Billboard Hot 100, the remix of “Cruise” with rapper Nelly was at number 4.
It was also the best-selling digital country song of all time, selling more than 7 million copies, and it was number one on Hot Country Songs for six months. The band’s first album, Here’s to the Good Times, came out on December 4, 2012, through Republic Nashville.
Since their first album was the sixth best-selling album of 2013, the group has put out two more albums: Tout va, which came out on August 15, 2014, and Dig Your Roots, which came out on August 26, 2016.
