Andy and his musicians were completely in sync and it was great. It was really nice to see a crowd so willing to be nice to each other.
Everyone was super friendly and we ended up talking and messing around with the people surrounding us. Within fans, there was a sense of camaraderie. During his older songs that everyone knew, there was a surge of energy and everyone sang along. He alternated between new songs and old songs and I really enjoyed that because even if no one knew the words he was encouraging us to dance and have a good time. From the moment he jumped onstage, he brought so much energy! Andy talked to the audience a lot and there wasn't a single person in the crowd that wasn't dancing or enjoying themselves. I saw Andy Grammer in a small venue and it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to! There were many chances to meet him after the show and I easily snagged one of the spots. The album 'Magazines or Novels' charted at #27 on the US charts, a huge gain commercially for the young artist. After a successful promotional campaign and an original release, Grammer released the anticipated first single of his follow up 'Back Home' on March 25, 2014. In January Billboard noted Grammer as an artist to watch after the success of his debut, his ever growing fan base and a successful supporting slot for the Plain White T's.Īfter the release of the album, Grammer earned another prestigious opening slot for Natasha Bedingfield on her Less Is More Tour in June 2011. Due to the interest around this release, the debut album topped the US Billboard New Artist Chart. His debut video to single 'Keep Your Head Up' was featured as iTunes Video of the Week in 2010 and went on to chart within the top 100 of the US Billboard chart, a difficult feat for a new artist. His beginnings are humble, starting at the very bottom as a street busker before being discovered in 2010 by his manager and signing to S-Curve Records. The guitar lead music of John Mayer and Jason Mraz the piano heavy Coldplay, Onerepublic and The Fray and the complex lyrical ability of hip hop artists such as Lauryn Hill, Jay Z and Kayne West. He takes his main influences from a mixture of three main genres. He pursued a degree in Music Industry Studies at the California State University in Northside and with his early interests in music he set about making a name for himself in the industry in which he had studied. At the age of 15 he turned his talents to songwriting, and by 20 he left Binghamton University in his hometown of Chester, New York and returned to the Los Angeles area where he currently lives.
A relative newcomer to the American music scene, his debut self titled album was released in 2011 however his musical origins can be traced back to his youth where Grammer learnt to play the trumpet, followed by the guitar and piano under the constant encouragement of his father Red Grammer who was a singer/songwriter at the time. Andrew Charles Grammer is an American singer/songwriter and record producer originally from California.
