Corey Stevenson is a singer songwriter that grew up in a small town called Man, West Virginia. His Father Michael Stevenson was a coal miner who worked hard to support two kids and a wife. His mother Laurice Stevenson was a stay at home mom and made sure the kids were raised with the best of care.
Corey started playing music at the age of 9 years old right after tragedy struck. Being into sports up until then, a hip injury made Corey unable to play sports anymore. He played drums for a year before his dad bought a guitar for them to “jam together”. As soon as Corey heard the sound of the guitar he knew what he wanted to do. He would work to learn chords while his dad was working.
He quickly picked up songs while listening to bands such as Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gov’t Mule, and Allman Brothers. Corey played his first show at the age of 11 at a venue called The Coalfield Jamboree. Soon after he joined a band called Cold Harbor, and began touring the east coast.
At age 15 he was heard by producer Noel Golden, who was working with Edwin McCain at OMG Entertainment where Corey auditioned, and was accepted into the prestigious Greenville Fine Arts Center where young Stevenson was called a prodigy. While going to school Corey wrote songs for many artists, and played local venues.
At age 17 Corey was given the Music Leader Scholarship for $15,000 to attend Newberry College where he played with acts such as Victor Wooten, Steve Bailey, and Wycliffe Gordon. Corey attended Newberry for two years while writing songs and working on his craft. He knew that he wasn’t destined to be a teacher, so he left to pursue his actual dream. Corey then started the Corey Stevenson Band and toured several towns before signing a deal with Country Roads Records, and a management deal with Beverly Gosdin.
Corey recorded with guitarist Brent Mason (who said “Corey is a great guitarist”) , Pianist Buddy Hyatt, Lonnie Wilson, and Donnie Duncan, on a Merle Haggard song called
