Candian Country Music Star Chad Brownlee big hit at Fanshawe College.

Juno nominated country music star Chad Brownlee rocked Fanshawe College's Forwell hall last night. The former Vancouver Canucks draft and Kelowna, B.C native put on a energetic show showcasing the best that Canadian country music has to offer. Brownlee mesmerized the crowd playing a mix of cover's and original songs including his newest songs; 'Crash', 'Listen' and the upbeat 'Carried Away' and 'Smoke in the Rain' which got the crowd dancing.

Brownlee was on hand after the show patiently signing autographs for fans and posing for pictures. Fame doesn't seemed to have changed the humble Brownlee and he is definitely a rising star to watch.

Brownlee played at London's Cowboys a few weeks ago, I asked him how this compared to his concert at Fanshawe.

Brownlee is nominated for Country album of the year for his newest album "Love me or Leave Me." The Junos will be airing live from the Brandt centre on April 21, 2013.
