“Boyish charm” is the phrase that comes to mind when recalling Bryan White’s self-titled debut album. This 1994 release made the most of the 20-year-old Oklahoman’s good looks and generally wholesome demeanor. But it was the smoothness of his tenor vocals and the small-town romanticism of his songs that established him on country radio. “Someone Else’s Star” became a wistful anthem for unlucky young lovers everywhere, and “Rebecca Lynn,” a tale of childhood sweethearts, is sung by White as if he were still deep in puppy love. Highly polished, slightly bluegrass-tinted tracks like “Look at Me Now,” “Me and the Moon,” and “This Town” anticipated the country-pop stylings of Rascal Flatts and similar artists by half a decade. While there’s nothing on Bryan White that could be described as edgy, “Eugene You Genius” displays a cocky attitude that’s surprisingly effective. White’s music in the later ‘90s showed greater maturity as he moved towards a more crossover-friendly pop sound. But he never shook his aura of innocence — a quality captured most winningly on his first song collection.
