Biography

Hailing from the Mississippi-Alabama border, Colin Stough is a self-taught guitarist and gravel-voiced storyteller influenced by Southern rock legends. After a successful run on American Idol Season 21, where he secured a third-place finish, Stough signed with 19 Recordings / BMG Nashville and released his breakout debut featuring tracks like “Bad Day” and “I Still Talk to Jesus.” Building a dedicated fan base of nearly 750k, Stough's raw vocals and honest lyrics on EPs like Promiseland and Lookin’ For Home reflect his journey through scars, faith, and fire with Southern grit, while his latest release "White Trash" stays true to his underdog narrative.

Stough, a student of iconic acts like Lynyrd Skynyrd, has shared the stage with artists such as Chase Matthew and Drake White, honing his live performance skills. Rejecting mainstream trends, he focuses on delivering authentic storytelling through his music, staying true to his roots and the outlaw spirit that defines his sound. As he continues to evolve as an artist, Stough remains dedicated to sharing the underdog’s truth through his compelling songwriting, one track at a time.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
