Bryan White is the self-titled debut album of American country music singer Bryan White. Released in late 1994 on Asylum Records, the album produced four singles on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts.

In order of release, these singles were "Eugene You Genius", "Look at Me Now", "Someone Else's Star", and "Rebecca Lynn"; the latter two songs were both Number One hits. The album itself reached a peak of 13 on the Billboard Top Country Albums charts, and 88 on The Billboard 200; in addition, it was certified platinum in the United States by the RIAA. Derek George, a former member of the band Pearl River, co-wrote the track "You Know How I Feel", in addition to singing background vocals.

"Someone Else's Star" was previously recorded by Davis Daniel on his 1994 album Davis Daniel. "Nothin' Less Than Love" was later recorded by The Buffalo Club on their 1997 self-titled album, from which it was released as a single that year. Neal McCoy also released "Going, Going, Gone" as a single from his 1996 self-titled album.

Tom Lanham of New Country gave the album 3 out of 5 stars. He thought that the album showed promise despite White being only 20 at the time, and compared the stronger songs favorably to Vince Gill. He thought that "Eugene You Genius" showed a rockabilly influence and that "Look at Me Now" was "Eagles-ish", but said that "the astral-themed meanderings 'Me and the Moon' and 'Someone Else's Star' definitely turn off White's talented light."
