With Christmas and New Year’s Eve coming up in the next couple of weeks, Brett Young shares that his focus is beyond the new year.
The former baseball player turned singer-songwriter explains that his goals are less about having something to prove and more about loving what he’s doing.
“I don’t know so much that it’s like me trying to prove something. That was never a goal of mine. Even in baseball, it was the same. There’s potential to get a huge public platform and make a lot of money in professional sports, same as in the music business. That’s never been a driving force for me. It’s always been about making a living doing something that I love. So, I think at this point, a couple years of success isn’t something to bank the rest of your life on. For me the goal now is cultivating longevity. I don’t feel like I need to prove anything. I’m really blessed and feel super fortunate to be able to do this for a living; and I wanna make sure that I give it my full hundred percent, and all of my attention to make sure that I hang around for a while.”
Brett has scored seven #1 singles in the five years since his debut single “Sleep Without You” was released. He has also had successful headlining tours, a successful clothing line and more.
Listen for his latest number one single “Lady” on Bloomington-Normal’s #1 Country, B104.
