Artist of the Day - Steve Holy

• Steve Holy, the youngest of eight children, wrote his first song when he was 13 for his brother Danny, who passed away at 21.
  
• Holy auditioned for the local Mesquite Opry at age 19, and later earned a spot on Johnny High’s Country Music Revue, eventually winning the revue’s Entertainer of the Year award. This brought the attention of legendary country producer Wilbur Rimes (and his daughter LeAnn), who encouraged Holy to shop himself around Nashville.
  
• Steve launched his Curb debut single, “Don’t Make Me Beg,” in 1999, and soon debuted at the Las Vegas Hilton as the opening act for LeAnn. He topped the charts in 2002 with “Good Morning Beautiful.” The single was also featured in the Jennifer Lopez movie “Angel Eyes.” “Good Morning Beautiful,” from his debut album “Blue Moon,” charted at No. 1 for five straight weeks and was No. 10 on Billboard’s list of top country songs of the decade.
  
• After following “Good Morning Beautiful” and several middle-charting singles, Holy scored another No. 1 hit in 2006 with “Brand New Girlfriend,” followed by an album of the same name on Curb Records. The album also produced the minor hits “Come On Rain” and “Men Buy the Drinks (Girls Call the Shots).”
  
• Steve Holy is back with his first new music in five years. The album “Love Don’t Run” features the title track.
