Luke Bryan Teams up With ASL Interpreter Who Can Match His Moves at Kentucky Show

If onstage hip shaking is an art, Luke Bryan is Picasso. The “Country Girl (Shake It For Me)” singer’s signature hip rolls are a perennial crowd pleaser at his live shows. Many have tried to out-gyrate Luke Bryan, and all have failed. That is, until one American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter stepped up to the plate at Bryan’s recent show in Kentucky.

ASL Interpreter Catches Luke Bryan’s Attention

Earlier this month, Luke Bryan kicked off his 15th straight Farm Tour. The tradition began in 2010 as a way for the five-time Entertainer of the Year to perform for and honor farmers.

Last Thursday (Sept. 26), Bryan made a stop in Shelbyville, Kentucky. And as he showed off his moves during a performance of “Kick the Dust Up,” he noticed the ASL interpreter doing the same across the stage.

ASL interpreters don’t merely translate the lyrics for any Deaf or hard-of-hearing concertgoers in the crowd. They use their entire bodies to communicate the meaning and emotion behind the song. And the woman at Bryan’s Kentucky show certainly brought the moves.

Impressed, the American Idol judge made his way across the stage to the woman interpreting his lyrics. The two grooved alongside one another as Bryan sang his 2015 hit.

Country Now posted a clip of the wholesome moment to its official Instagram page, and fans loved it. “She put on her own concert!” one Instagram user wrote.

Luke Bryan isn’t just paying lip service with his Farm Tour. The Georgia native spent his childhood helping tend to his father’s peanut farm. And that lifestyle came in clutch after Hurricane Helene forced Bryan to reschedule a show in Millersport, Ohio.

The country superstar shared a video to social media of himself and others using tractors to free the trailers carrying his equipment from the mud.

“There’s a lot of people in Florida and Georgia and all up the East Coast, southeast, that got the hurricane,” Bryan said in the video. “And we got the hurricane in Ohio, so we had to cancel the Farm Tour. Now we’re pulling all the gear out.”
