Sterling Fox (born Brandon Lowry in Stoystown, Pennsylvania) is an American songwriter, record producer and recording artist. He has written and produced multiple #1 songs and his works have gone on to sell over 11 million units since 2011.[citation needed]

Career

After an early stint as a cruise ship pianist, Sterling's musical career came to fruition in 2007 after moving to New York City. He quickly came into demand as a session player, songwriter, and music producer. In 2008, he co-founded a music production duo Robopop. Soon after, Sterling went on to cowrite and coproduce "Stereo Hearts" by Gym Class Heroes, featuring Adam Levine. The record was certified 3x platinum in the United States, 3x platinum in Australia and 2x platinum in Canada and reached #1 on the Billboard US Pop Songs Chart.[citation needed]

After the success of "Stereo Hearts", Sterling coproduced the song "Video Games", the first breakout release from artist Lana Del Rey. "Video Games" was a huge success and its album Born to Die has gone on to sell over 5,000,000 units worldwide. Fox also played the piano part on the recording and was credited as a mixing engineer. After "Video Games", Fox split off from his production team to focus on his own solo project. He has since worked on a number of collaborations, including cowriting and adding vocals to the song "Shame on Me" from Avicii's album True and writing and singing the #1 charting Beatport song "Colors" with Tritonal.

In 2013, Sterling cowrote the dance crossover hit "Take Me Home" by Cash Cash, which was certified gold in the US and reach #5 in the UK. Later that year, Fox started a New York City based record label Silver Scream Records, focused primarily on releasing singles from unique and upcoming recording artists. In 2014, Sterling produced and cowrote the #1 iTunes hit single "Wasted Love" for The Voice Season 7 finalist Matt McAndrew. It sold 100,000 copies the first night of its release and reached #1 on the iTunes singles chart.[citation needed]

He has written songs with the likes of Madonna, Max Martin, Charli XCX, Adam Lambert, Shellback, Benny Blanco, and many others. Sterling Fox recently announced plans to release his first solo album in 2015.
