* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: "Dirt" was a hard left turn from their previous songs, being a serious ballad with some semblance of depth, and "Brian and Tyler both taking turns on the vocals. "Confession" and "H.O.L.Y." continued their trend of having more serious ballads in addition to their usual sound on their albums.

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: "Dirt". A serious ballad with some semblance of depth, and the "other guy" sharing the lead vocal. "Confession" and "H.O.L.Y." also suggest a move to more serious ballads.

* LoudnessWar: Joey Moi's production is a point of contention for many listeners, as he tends to drown everything in screeching guitars, drum machines, and big walls of {{Auto Tune}}d backing vocals.

* ShoutOut: To the Marshall Tucker Band on "Cruise".

Their second album, ''Anything Goes'', dropped in mid-2014. Leading it off was the completely serious ballad "Dirt", which also topped the charts… after that, it was back to the bro-country with the hits "Sun Daze", "Sippin' on Fire", and "Anything Goes", only to return to balladry with "Confession". ''Dig Your Roots'' pushed ballads to the forefront, with the more serious "H.O.L.Y.", "May We All" (duet with Music/TimMcGraw), and "God, Your Mama, and Me" (duet with Music/BackstreetBoys). Following this album's cycle, they appeared on two duets at the same time: Morgan Wallen's "Up Down" and Music/BebeRexha's "Meant to Be".

A CountryMusic duo consisting of Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard, respectively from Florida and Georgia. After making some initial noise with two extended plays, the duo achieved its breakout in 2012 with "Cruise", from their album ''Here's to the Good Times''. Already a top country hit by year's end, the song only became bigger and bigger upon being remixed with rapper Music/{{Nelly}}. With the country charts being retooled to include downloads, it ended up with a 15-week run at the top. The duo's next three singles — "Get Your Shine On", "Round Here", and "Stay", the last of which was originally recorded by Black Stone Cherry — have all topped the country charts too. Following those four songs, their debut album was released with some bonus tracks, including its fifth single, the Music/LukeBryan duet "This Is How We Roll". The album became one of the codifiers for the oft-derided "bro-country" trend; i.e., country music with rap and rock influences, usually about partying.

* {{Bowdlerize}}: On the radio edit of "Sun Daze", "getting laid" in the first verse is edited to "getting paid".

* LoudnessWar: Joey Moi's production is a point of contention for many listeners, as he tends to drown everythin in screeching guitars, drum machines, and big walls of {{Auto Tune}}d backing vocals.

* StepUpToTheMicrophone: Tyler usually takes the lead vocal, but Brian sings several lines on "Dirt", "Anything Goes", and "May We All". "God, Your Mama, and Me" also invokes this with its guest vocals from Music/BackstreetBoys, as Nick Carter sings the second verse while AJ [=McLean=] and Kevin Richardson sing the bridge.
