Love Like Crazy

This back home country boy is no match for your everyday country star. The sound of his voice when he speaks and even talks is more country than you and I have ever heard. Even his smile shows how country this man is! Lee says that he gets his love for music from Garth Brooks and Hank Junior, two of the most popular country singers, but he also is influenced by bands such as 3 Doors Down, John Mayer and Rob Thomas. Brice hopes to one day, possibly 10 years from now to hear his music own music on the radio and not just on country stations, on rap stations as well. He says if anyone can do it, he can! With his new debut CD rocking the charts, Lee says that he took a huge leap with this one. This CD takes him back to the farm where he grew up and to the dirt roads he and his buddies drove on. Brice said he taught himself how to play the piano at age 7 and has loved music ever since. He had two loves in life, music and football, where he played for Clemson up until beginning of his senior year when he had surgery on his arm and that was the end of his football career. From there he went on to Nashville to pursue his singing career. He hooked up with Doug Johnson who was his mentor and his career sky rocketed from there. When “Love Like Crazy” was released to radio stations in August 2009, Lee Brice had no idea how long it would take for the song to get going. It’s now been on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for 53 weeks, which is more than a year that it’s been in circulation, and it’s still on the move in the Top 5. That endurance is so rare that only one song has ever lasted longer on the country chart: Eddy Arnold’s “Bouquet Of Roses,” which began a 54-week run in 1948. Brice to me is one of the greatest country singers I have heard in a very long time. I can’t wait for his next new single!!!!
