Singer/Songwriter Stephen Hunley, nephew of the renowned country vocalist Con Hunley, was born and raised in Knoxville, Tennessee. He grew up in a family that surrounded him with a love and passion for music, which impacted him at a very young age. He began taking piano and violin lessons at the age of five, and for a moment it seemed as if Hunley was destined to follow in the musical footsteps of his family. However, his attention soon turned to another passion… baseball. At the age of twelve he decided to quit taking music lessons all together and devote his time and attention to baseball, which ultimately earned him a scholarship to Cumberland College in Williamsburg, Kentucky. After two seasons Hunley felt it was time for a change, moved back to his hometown and enrolled in classes at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. It was during this time, Hunley began to reconnect with his passion for music by playing and writing songs on a guitar his father bought for him. He started playing his songs for family and friends who encouraged him to pursue his rediscovered love for music. After graduating with a degree in Political Science, Hunley began taking his talents as a songwriter seriously, playing small clubs and bars around East Tennessee.作者: sunny萝卜 时间: 2013-6-12 08:49
