We are happy to have Kurt Stevens as our latest member to the Southern Fellow Family. I got to ask him a few questions and Kurt inspired an amazing holiday recipe. Please give it a try and enter our giveaway at the end. Here is our interview with country music artist Kurt Stevens.
Tell us about your road to Nashville.
I played music pretty much my whole life, I started playing classical piano when I was four, then picked up guitar in high school, and started singing and playing at Potbelly’s happy hour when I went to FSU. From there, I started a band and we played all over Florida and the Southeast until I graduated. About two weeks after I graduated I packed up my truck and moved up to Nashville with really no clue what to expect.
You’re a new addition to the crayon box. What color would you be and why?
I think I’d have to be Blue, It’s my favorite color and the color of my favorite place, the ocean.
If you could not play music, what do you think you would be doing?
I think I’d work my way up to become a professional fishing guide, I love meeting new people and I love being on the water and the idea of being able to do both while making a living would be great.
Who/What has inspired you the most and how has that contributed to your music?
My Dad is definitely my hero and has been my inspiration since day one. He raised me on great music and always pushed me to follow my passion since I was a little kid. He is the hardest working person I know and his work ethic has definitely inspired me to be the hardest worker I can. Fast forward twenty years and he is still my biggest supporter.
We are always developing recipes here at Southern Fellow; when writing music, what recipe do you use?
I’m a pretty huge food nerd and I’m always cooking, I think while writing music I’d like to be making some homemade bread and pasta. There’s something about working with your hands that gets your mind off of things and opens you up creatively.
What’s the most interesting thing about you that people may not know?
I love documentaries, I’m not much of a TV person, but I definitely watch a ton of docs. Anything and everything that Ken Burns has done, and all of the wildlife docs such as Blue Planet with David Attenborough are my favorites.
