Kane Brown: From Posting Covers Online to Country Music Stardom
Kane Brown’s rise to fame started in the most unlikely place — the staff bathroom of a hardware store. The Georgia-born singer posted cover videos online that quickly went viral, leading to hit singles, chart-topping albums, and global tours.
Blending country, R&B, pop, and hip-hop, Brown’s unique sound has earned him millions of fans. Music became his escape from a difficult childhood, which included periods of homelessness. He once said, “Music was always my life, even when I didn’t realize it.”
A childhood friend of Lauren Alaina, Brown later teamed up with her on the breakout duet “What Ifs”, his first major No. 1 hit. More hits followed, including “Lose It,” “One Thing Right” with DJ Marshmello, and “Thank God,” his romantic duet with wife Katelyn Brown.
Since his 2016 debut album, Brown has released four studio albums, with his latest — The High Road (2025) — featuring the Platinum single “Miles On It.” The album supports his massive world tour, which includes stops across the U.S., Australia, and the U.K.
The 31-year-old performer has also dabbled in acting, appearing in CBS’s Fire Country in 2023, and is now stepping into film production. Alongside Katelyn, he’s executive-producing a Lifetime holiday movie inspired by their hit “Thank God.”
Offstage, Brown is a proud husband and father of three — daughters Kingsley and Kodi, and baby son Krewe. With family, music, and new ventures ahead, 2025 is shaping up to be another landmark year for the country star.
