Artist Name: Steve Brown
Hometown: Arisaig in the Scottish Highlands

What project(s) are you currently working on?

My follow up singles after “One Hit Song,” co-writes with fellow country artists Sarah Louise and Celine Ellis in the UK, and Kelly Williams and Lauren Beachak in USA.

What inspired you to pursue a career in music and when did you know?

Seeing my big brother play guitar in 1975. Music has been my passion ever since. The career “lightbulb moment” happened in the Commando Memorial car park in Spean Bridge near Fort William in Scotland, in June 1993 – when I realised I could make a living from playing gigs.

If you weren’t pursuing a career in music, what would you be doing for a living?

Fundraising for charities. I do some of this already and love it.

What is your favorite downtime activity?

What is this “downtime” you speak of? I’m an avid reader, and love traveling – more than ever since the world has reopened.

Who is your biggest celebrity crush?

Emily Blunt – and Farrah Fawcet Majors (I’ve got her hair!)

Who is your favorite sports team(s)?

I’m afraid I don’t do sports. We’re not very good at that in Scotland. lol

What is the last movie that you watched?

Mrs Harris Goes To Paris (brilliant!)

What is the last album you listened to?

Tim Prottey-Jones – my own playlist of his singles.

If you could only listen to one album for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Rush – A Farewell To Kings

What is the greatest country song of all time?

Whiskey Lullaby (Brad Paisley w/ Alison Krauss)

Glasgow

Who is your dream duet partner?

To write and perform great songs in great venues – and have them covered by other artists. That would be the ultimate accolade.
