Steve Brookstein

About steve brookstein I've been writing and singing for many years and I'vebeen involved with a number of record labels. In 1996MCA signed me to their dance label and had Judge JulesRecord Of The Week. In 2000, my production companysigned two female artists to major deals in the USA(Colombia) and UK (Innocent/Virgin). I was signed toEMI Publishing but me big break came as a singer whenin December 2004 I won The X Factor with a staggering5.5 million votes. Sadly things didn't work out afterI fell out with Simon Cowell but I guess things happenfor a reason.

Over the years I'm lucky enough to have duetted withBeBe Winans and Maxi Priest and supported DionneWarwick. I've played great venues from the East HamSocial Club to the 606 Club and Wembley. I've done allthe many classic TV shows like Top Of The Pops(twice), CD:UK and Paul O'Grady Show. The FrankSkinner Show was a good laugh and doing The WrightStuff was always a big favourite. I guess prime timeTV on Saturday night to 10 million was quite nice! Ilove to sing and write but I also love quiet timeswith my family and friends. I never saw myself as apop star and I'm glad things have calmed down sincethose heady heights of 2005, though I'm glad I havehad a number one album! I did enjoy the classic oldsoul numbers but it would be nice to have success withmy own songs too. It is something that would neverhappen with Mr Cowell. I'm also involved in my wife'sjazz album which has been an absolute joy. Pleasecheck out stevebrookstein.com
