Crash My Party (Deluxe Version)

Luke Bryan began blending country with dance music and pop on 2011’s Tailgates & Tanlines, and follow-up Crash My Party finds him doubling down on the mixture. “That’s My Kind of Night” manages to seamlessly mate banjo picking to Jeep beats, while a guitar tapestry meets hip-hop-derived grooves on the bittersweetly fraternal “Blood Brothers.” But spare, acoustic-based ballad “Drink a Beer” and the raw, rocking riffs of “Out Like That” show Bryan’s got multiple strings to his bow.
