About steve brookstein

I'm working on a new album but this is one I prepared earlier: Check out Eileen Hunter - my best friend, wife and great artist! X Factor winner's mrs!

I've been writing and singing for many years and I've been involved with a number of record labels. In 1996 MCA signed me to their dance label and had Judge Jules Record Of The Week. In 2000, my production company signed two female artists to major deals in the USA (Colombia) and UK (Innocent/Virgin). I was signed to EMI Publishing but me big break came as a singer when in December 2004 I won The X Factor with a staggering 5.5 million votes. Sadly things didn't work out after I fell out with Simon Cowell which was a shame but I guess things happen for a reason.

Over the years I'm lucky enough to have duetted with BeBe Winans and Maxi Priest and supported Dionne Warwick. I've played great venues from the East Ham Social Club to the 606 Club and Wembley. I've done all the many classic TV shows like Top Of The Pops (twice), CD:UK and Paul O'Grady Show. The Frank Skinner Show was a good laugh and doing The Wright Stuff was always a big favourite. I guess prime time TV on Saturday night to 10 million was quite nice! I love to sing and write but I also love quiet times with my family and friends. I never saw myself as a pop star and I'm glad things have calmed down since those heady heights of 2005, though I'm glad I have had a number one album! I did enjoy the classic old soul numbers but it would be nice to have success with my own songs too. Maybe one day it will. I'm also involved in my wife's jazz album which has been an absolute joy. Please check out stevebrookstein.com

I was performing in Ireland when I heard that Luther died...He was the greatest. Glad to say I recorded 'Dance With My Father' on my debut album. This one is for him!

This is from our honeymoon in Rome. We had a fantastic time and can't wait to go back. If you've never been - GO! Amazing city.

FLOORED GUINESS	Mar 3 2009 12:37 PM You are much celebrated on the Northern Soul scene, and I, for one, am impressed by the stuff you did with Ian Levine. You have a cult status that will live long after Simon Cowell's proteges, and all those plastic celebrities, who are famous simply for being famous! Steven Does MAKE CELEBRITIES HISTORY: CONSIGN THEM TO OBLIVION!
FLOORED GUINESS	Mar 26 2009 2:52 PM BEST THING YOU EVER DID, NEXT TO YOUR MUSIC, WAS TO FALL OUT WITH SIMON COWELL; DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A DIFFICULT THING TO DO! STEVEN DOES MAKE CELEBRITIES, AND SIMON COWELL, HISTORY: CONSIGN THEM TO OBLIVION!
