Story

An award-winning singer, songwriter, philanthropist, and former NHL draft pick, country music artist Chad Brownlee’s dynamic career continues to erupt on the Canadian music scene.

Over the last few years Brownlee has received critical acclaim and numerous accolades including a highly coveted 2014 JUNO nomination for Country Album of the Year, and consecutive Canadian CCMA Award nominations for Male Artist of the Year nominations.

His vast discography reflects a solid body of work, including the albums Love Me or Leave Me, and his most recent release The Fighters, which was created with the incredible support of FACTOR.

Through FACTOR’s patronage to aid in production, marketing, advertising and promotion, in recent years Chad’s singles have rapidly climbed the country music charts, with multiple singles cracking the ‘top 10’.

His latest album features the award-winning track “Just Because” for which Brownlee and his fellow co-writers received the 2014 British Columbia Country Music Association SOCAN Songwriter of the Year Award.
