Steve Grand is an American musician and singer-songwriter from Lemont, Illinois, a Chicago suburb. He became an overnight internet celebrity and was acclaimed by some to be the first openly gay male country musician to attract mainstream attention in the United States. The music video of his first hit "All-American Boy" went viral on YouTube in less than a week in July 2013. This attention landed Grand on ?Good Morning America,? CNN and other national media. Buzzfeed ranked the video on its list of the ?24 Most Brilliant Music Videos from 2013,? and Out magazine named Grand to its annual ?Out100? list of the year?s most compelling LGBT people. In addition to being a musician, Grand has become an active figure in the LGBT equality movement.
