Brantley is currently on his A derailed tour. During his Oct. 11 stop in Tupelo, Mississippi, security escorted the singer off the stage. What he didn’t know at the time was that his son was being born.

Brantley fled the stage after realizing what was happening and returned shortly after the baby was born to celebrate with concertgoers. He exclaimed:We’re having a baby, Mississippi!”
Brantley Gilbert was the first person to hold his son
The “You Don’t Know Her Like I Do” singer opened up about the birth of his son in a recent podcast with Big D & Bubba.
“Four songs in, my manager came and got me. My first thought was that it was a security issue, and I didn’t follow through immediately. He then took a few steps away, looked at me and said “honey”. When he said “honey” we just took off.
He went on to say that he was the first person to hold his son. When his wife was in labor, the midwife who traveled with the couple in case of an unplanned birth asked Brantley if he wanted to hold his son.
The singer said yes and became the first person to hug his son. he said “It was really great. I have to be first. The first person to touch it. But man, she [Amber] it was. She is an absolute warrior.”
He went on to say, “she had the baby and then my tour manager showed up and he said, ‘Hey man, if we go in the next 15 minutes, we can be done.’
He returned to the scene with amniotic fluid still on his arm!
Watch his return to the stage below.
