Brantley Gilbert Leaves His Concert To Help Amber Give Birth…Then Returns To The Stage
Brantley is currently traveling across the country on his Off the Rails Tour. He had a show in Tupelo, Mississippi, on Friday night (October 11).
Suddenly, the “Outlaw in Me” singer stopped the show when he learned that Amber was ready to give birth. He left to help Amber (and their midwife) welcome their third child into the world…on their tour bus in the parking lot.
After a little while, Brantley returned to the stage to announce that Baby #3 had arrived! “We got a baby, Mississippi!” he exclaimed.
Brantley’s band members rushed to give him congratulatory hugs upon his return.
@momisme_92 Such a bittersweet moment! Such a proud husband and father. Says alot about a man who comes back out after literally catching his baby in his arms on the tour bus and then thanks his fans for taking care of his family all these years. @Brantley Gilbert #brantleygilbert #father #tupelo ♬ original sound – Cynthia Parker

Baby Gilbert will now share a connection to Elvis Presley, who was also born in Tupelo.
Some concertgoers filmed Brantley’s grand return to the stage after becoming a new father of three. He told the audience he got the chance to catch his son when he was born, which clearly made him emotional.

Then, Brantley surprised everyone by sharing that he would finish the show.
“But I gotta tell y’all, I know it seems crazy to come back out, and a lot of you moms are probably in here like, ‘What the f— is wrong with this dude?‘” he joked.
Brantley continued, “But for 20 years this is the only life I’ve ever known. And I know a lot of you have been coming to shows for 20 years and had my back for 20 years, and I can’t imagine being anywhere else. God bless y’all, man.”
Look below to watch another clip of Brantley talking to his Tupelo audience after welcoming his third baby in the middle of his concert.
@lindseylou_ The fact that this man paused his show to go out & help deliver his kid being born then come back out to finish the show is a DEDICATED MAN who LOVES HIS FANS! So many tears were shed from him and the crowd! The best concert ever! #brantleygilbert #tupeloms #concerts ♬ original sound – Lindsey Dannielle Williamson🌸
Brantley Gilbert Reflects On What “Might Have Been The Craziest Night Of [His] Life”
The following day (October 12), Brantley shared his own video about his baby boy’s grand debut. The video shows him leaving the stage to go be by Amber’s side. Then, it cuts to a clip of him calling his mom to tell her about her new grandbaby’s arrival.
When Brantley’s mom asked how Amber was doing, he responded, “She’s a freaking savage,” prompting his mom to exclaim how “amazing” her daughter-in-law is.
Brantley reiterated that sentiment in the video’s caption, writing:
“So last night might have been the craziest night of my life. Watching such an amazing woman do such an amazing thing is something I’ll never forget. Thank you to our road family for rallying around us, Brittany Thornton for helping us bring this little dude into the world, Tupelo, Mississippi for showing us mad love and support, and most of all… Amber Gilbert, for letting me love you and showing me EXACTLY how incredibly strong a woman can be. I love you.”
Brantley and Amber later shared another post revealing their baby boy’s name…Abram Howell Gilbert.

The Gilberts also opened up to Fox & Friends about their son’s “crazy” birth story. “…can’t say this was on my bingo card,” Brantley joked. He revealed that he and Amber were prepared by having their midwife tag along on tour, but they thought they still had “a week or so” before Abram arrived.
Brantley also shared several photos and videos of their new baby boy, which you can see when you press “play” on his post below. Congratulations to Brantley and Amber on their new addition!
