The cherubic boy-next-door good looks are still there, as is the voice and talent, but what is different about Bryan White and his new Asylum album Between Now & Forever is the maturation of the artist.
   Last year's self-titled freshman effort Bryan White started off slow with the release of "Eugene, You Genius" and ended with a bang when "Someone Else's Star" hit number one followed by this year's first number one "Rebecca Lynn." With Between Now & Forever White has assembled an array of songs by some of the industry's top writer's as well as penning a few for himself.
   You'll find tunes by Mac McAnally ("Still Life"), Chris Waters & Lonnie Wilson ("Blindhearted"), and Skip Ewing and Donny Kees ("I'm Not Supposed To Love You Anymore") with the latter already getting airplay.
   White mixes up the tunes with ballads (for which he seems to have a forte) and endearing upbeat tunes like "A Hundred And One" which he says "makes me think of my grandparents because they"ve been together for almost 50 years."
   If White continues on this track he"ll end up being married to country music for 50 years too.
