Luke Bryan to Host IT’S ALL COUNTRY Music Documentary

Country singer Luke Bryan is slated to host and executive produce a new Hulu original documentary, IT’S ALL COUNTRY.

Variety reported, “The six-episode series ‘explores…people, topics and moments in country music by examining the iconic songs and artists that changed the face of country music forever.”

“Marking 100 years since the first country music record was made, the series highlights the cultural impact and memorable performers and performances that make country music an American and growing global sensation,” Variety wrote.

Billboard reported, Peyton Manning will executive produce the series with his Omaha Productions, as well as NFL Films and Walt Disney Television Alternative.

Manning and Bryan worked together when they hosted the 56^th annual Country Music Awards in 2022.

The Indianapolis Star reported, “In preparation for hosting, Manning told Bryan he had watched film, studied all the CMA Award shows since 1967. He asked Bryan what he had done to prepare.”

“I don’t prepare. I’m just a wing it kind of host,” Bryan told Manning.

“Trust me, that’s clear. So what you’re saying is this is my worst nightmare. But it’s actually OK because I do a show with my brother Eli. I am used to this lack of professionalism,” Manning joked.

Despite his “wing it” style, with over 50 music awards, Bryan appears to be an ideal fit for the job of producer and host. He served as a judge on AMERICAN IDOL and has had his music streamed over 20 billion times, as reported by ABC.

Movieguide® recently reported on how Bryan uses his fame to help lesser-known artists:

Remembering his past, Bryan now uses his position to help aspiring country singers to reach their full potential.

‘He’s always been a buy to act on his desire to help and uplift up-and-coming artist. It’s been such a blessing to be on the receiving end of that wisdom,’ said up-and-coming singer Conner Smith, who toured with Bryan.

‘He’s just such a legendary artist to get to go on tour with. Obviously, he was ‘such a soundtrack to my growing up so I’m super excited,’ Smith added about the tour.
