In an Instagram video, the country rock singer revealed that his wife, Amber Cochran Gilbert, went into labor while he was mid-show at Cadence Bank Arena in Tupelo during his Off the Rails Tour.
The clip showed the moment Amber was rushed to the tour bus as she was ready to give birth, with people rushing around to provide as much support as they could.
Brantley was then told about the "emergency" and pulled off stage to be by his wife's side.

The video was followed up with black-and-white images of the couple cradling their little one and introducing him to everyone, including his mother.
She could be heard asking him how he was, to which he responded: "Not as good as you are about to be. You got a new grandbaby.
“I got a new grandbaby? I do?” she could be heard replying, clearly excited.
His mother then asked him how his wife was, and he told her that she was "a freaking savage".
“I know she is. She’s amazing. She’s absolutely amazing.” He then told her that he would “go finish the show” and FaceTime her later.
Brantley then went back on stage to announce the news to his fans who were waiting for his return - and of course, they were thrilled for him too.
Have a look at the full video below:"So last night might have been the craziest night of my life," he wrote in the caption. "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," he added in the post.
