Lee Brice, born Kenneth Mobley Brice Jr. on June 10, 1979, in Sumter, South Carolina, is an American country music singer and songwriter.
Raised in a musical family, Brice developed a passion for music early, learning to play piano and guitar as a child while singing in church.
His early exposure to country music, influenced by his father’s love for groups like the Oak Ridge Boys and Alabama, shaped his artistic path.
Initially, Brice pursued a football scholarship at Clemson University, where he played as a long snapper, but an arm injury redirected his focus to a music career.
Since then, he has become a prominent figure in country music, blending traditional and modern elements to create songs that resonate with a wide audience.
Siblings
Lee has one sibling, a younger brother named Lewis Brice, who is also a country music artist.
Born and raised in Sumter, South Carolina, Lewis has carved out his own path in the music industry while maintaining a close relationship with his older brother.
Lewis gained early recognition as a contestant on the first season of Country Music Television’s Can You Duet, finishing in eighth place.
Like Lee, Lewis grew up immersed in music, singing in church choirs and praise bands before moving to Nashville to pursue his career.
His music blends country, southern rock, and R&B, reflecting his South Carolina roots.
The brothers share a strong bond, evident in their first musical collaboration, the song “Product Of,” which serves as the title track for Lewis’s debut album released in July 2023.
