Birmingham Native Callie Courter’s New Album ‘Love is for the Brave’
Twenty-two-year-old Callie Courter can’t remember when she wasn’t writing poetry and singing around the house. The Birmingham native started writing song lyrics while majoring in music at UAB. As a graduation present, her dad financed the production of her first album, called “Love Is For The Brave.” She now lives in Nashville, where she’s chasing her dreams of being a professional musician.
Courter sat down with Les Lovoy to tell WBHM about the new album, her first experience in the studio, and her songwriting process.
