We know you want to know more about Celeste Kellogg so be sure to check out our interview with her below.
FBC: What made you want to get involved in the country music world?
CK: I loved listening to country music and a lot of the artists in the genre. I loved how it told a story and how sincere the artists were. It was the kind of music I loved to write and sing and listen to!
FBC: What song of yours is your favorite and why?
CK: My favorite song of mine that I've released is "Tornado". I love weather so I've written quite a few songs with a weather theme. When I wrote "Tornado" I was in an uneasy place. I applied it to the feeling of knowing something bad is going to happen but it's not there yet... like a storm on it's way. So it's my favorite because of the meaning behind it and the studio musicians I worked with made it sound EPIC instrumentally (honestly the ending without my voice is my favorite part of the song lol).
FBC: Who is your country music idol and why?
CK: My country music Idol would probably be Alan Jackson. I grew up listening to my Dad sing and whenever I heard Alan's voice it reminded me of my Dads. So for a long time he was my favorite artist and someone I really looked up to as a writer and an artist who just knew who he was and stuck to that.
FBC: If you could do a country duet with anyone who would it be and why?
CK: I would love to do a duet with Shania Twain. A lot of people have compared me to her and I look up to her songwriting and positive attitude! I think a girl power duet with her would be really cool!
FBC: What are three fun facts about you that you want your fans to know?
CK: I love to edit videos! I'm a terrible bowler. I can pogo stick without holding on to the handle bars!
