In the early years of his career, this son of South Carolina was known mostly for the tunes he penned for other country artists. But that shifted in 2009, when Lee Brice released the first single from his debut album. Ever since then, his winning combination of indelible melodies and soulful vocals has made him an artist to be reckoned with. Country fans have come to know him as the kind of performer that puts his all into everything he touches, whether he's churning out a piston-pumping party-starter or crooning a heartbreaking ballad.
