ANDY GRAMMER BIO
Magic exists in many forms. In Andy Grammer’s case, magic starts with an acoustic guitar, a melody, and a whole lot of truth. The multi-platinum singer and songwriter continues to engage, energize, and empower audiences with stomping stadium-size pop anthems meant to be shared at full volume. His observations and affirmations pick you back up when you need it, affirm your potential, and encourage you to keep going. You may not be able to see the connection Andy makes, but you’ll feel it on his forthcoming fifth full-length album and much more to come.
“While we’re here, life is incredible,” he exclaims. “When you have a moment to really listen, music reminds you that there’s so much more in front of you than there is behind you. In my opinion, to be able to give somebody this reminder in the middle of the day is wizardry. Music will bring back something you already knew about yourself or an experience of what it means to be human. That’s my favorite part of being an artist and what makes me jump out of bed to write in the morning.
It’s also transformed him into a prolific pop presence. His catalog consists of numerous bona fide hits, including the quadruple-platinum “Honey, I’m Good,” platinum singles “Keep Your Head Up,” “Fine By Me,” “Don’t Give Up On Me,” “Fresh Eyes,” “Good To Be Alive (Hallelujah),” gold single “I Found You,” and the gold albums Andy Grammer and Magazines Or Novels. He has quietly generated billions of streams and lent his music to films such as Five Feet Apart. When “Don’t Give Up On Me” soundtracked ESPN’s 13th Annual V Week for Cancer Reach, he garnered a Sports Emmy for Outstanding Music Direction and a Clio Award. Beyond selling out shows on multiple continents, he has electrified dozens of television shows, including The Today Show, Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, Good Morning America, American Idol, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and The Late Late Show with James Corden in addition to appearing as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars. Most recently, his 2019 offering, Naïve, arrived to widespread critical acclaim. Parade attested, “Each song on the album magically pinpoints its emotional target with brilliant composition and performance,” and People hailed it as “touching.”
At the onset of the Global Pandemic, Andy’s life changed again. Two weeks into the lockdown, his second daughter was born. As the months rolled on, he did a whole lot of soul-searching.
With future touring and recording more uncertain than ever, he grasped for meaning.
“Throughout the pandemic, I realized that I derived much of my self-worth from what I do,” he confesses. “When you take away shows and being on stage, I wasn’t so good, and it was one of the most difficult years of my life. I’m someone who loves to be around thousands of people. To be isolated from everything rocked me hard. So, I started going to therapy. My therapist told me I was getting worth from things outside of myself—as opposed to from within myself. I didn’t want my self-worth to be at the whim of external factors. Initially, it sucked hard, but a lot of art came out of it. It totally made a mark on me and influenced how I wrote. This record is a front row seat to me figuring a lot of this out.”
He didn’t do it alone. He spent two weeks with friends and frequent collaborators Jon Levine, Nolan Sipe, and Bram Inscore. Together, they wrote music all day and expanded the sound, incorporating everything from boisterous horns to bongos.
“To me, pop music is about catching an intense radioactive feeling and saying it super simply,” he states. “That comes from inside of you. It’s not revolutionary, but the feeling is powerful.”
Speaking of, the first song “Lease On Life” embodies this approach. Delicately plucked acoustic guitar curls around his verses as tambourine and handclaps pick up momentum towards a bold bridge. It culminates on the chant, “Everything’s gonna be alright…got a brand new lease on life.”
“I worry a lot—in case you couldn’t tell,” he laughs. “I get in my head. There are little sports where I’m at the top of the mountain and I see where everything could go. Those moments are so exhilarating. Life happens, and I can no longer see this possibility. So, I have to rely on repetition and willpower to see something beautiful and great is coming. I’ve had a couple of these moments recently with my kids and through meditation. I want more of them. They’re little breadcrumbs that keep you going.”
Elsewhere, “Damn It Feels Good To Be Me” leans into “rebelliously happy” energy with its “marching band vibe.”
“It just feels really good to be where I’m at,” he smiles. “I’m in the crowd with everybody else, and we’re doing this together. I’m unapologetically coming out swinging around love.”
In many ways, “Love Myself” speaks to the album’s overarching theme with a personal message.
“It’s a love song to yourself,” he adds. “I’m not sure why I need other people to say I’m worthy in order to believe it, but I’m learning.”
In the end, Andy has found real magic within himself.
“My favorite records have always reconnected me to who I am and brought me back to center,” he leaves off. “If you take this music and apply it to your life, that’d so sick. This is not scientific for me, but I feel really good about it. My three-year-old woke up the other day and said, ‘Dad, got a brand new, got a brand new, got a brand new lease on life’. That was a good sign. It’s magic.”
Los Angeles, CA – May 6, 2022 – Acclaimed multi-platinum pop singer and songwriter Andy Grammer has reunited with R3HAB for their fourth collaboration together on the heartfelt new single, “Saved My Life,” available everywhere today via Giant Soul/S-Curve/Hollywood Records.

Andy introduced the song to fans during the first leg of his The Art of Joy Tour, where he dedicated it to his Godmother, Leigh, who has been by his side since his mother passed away when Andy was only 25. TikTok also featured the track in their “Early Song Preview” campaign, which generated over 7 million views in less than a week.
“I wrote this song about my godmother Leigh who really showed up for me to all the big and small life things after my mother passed away when I was 25,” said Andy. “It’s been amazing seeing people connect to the song so I wanted to give tribute to people who have shown up in the lives of my fans as well in the video.”

January 28, 2022 (Los Angeles, CA) – Today, acclaimed multi-platinum pop singer and songwriter Andy Grammer has released “Joy,” an emotion-filled new track via Giant Soul/S-Curve/Hollywood Records.
Click HERE to listen.
Andy, who is known for engaging, energizing and empowering audiences across the world with his chart-topping radio hits, takes listeners through experiences of fear, doubt, sorrow, grief, pressure, jealousy and shame before finally finding joy as evidenced in the new track’s hook, “I found joy, yeah she opened up my eyes and gave me wings and halo rings and taught me how to fly.”
On the inspiration for the song, Andy said:
“I have always loved the word ‘Joy.’ I feel like it has a depth, a grounded spiritual center, something deeper and more substantial than happiness. It’s somehow light and weighty at the same time. I wanted to capture all that while still having a party and I think we did.”
Honored with another reason to rejoice, Andy has recently reached an unprecedented milestone. He officially stands out as the No. 1 “Happy Pop” Streaming Artist and has registered over 3 billion artist streams. This accolade has been buoyed by the runaway success of recent tracks “Lease On Life,” which Andy created under the inspiration of a newfound perspective he gained during the pandemic and has generated over 30 million total streams, “Damn It Feels Good To Be Me,” a genre-bending single that was written about boldly owning your individuality, and “Love Myself,” Andy’s latest release which is about the importance of loving and accepting yourself. All of these songs are building towards a bigger vision for Andy’s fifth full-length album due out in late 2022.
Andy will also kick off The Art of Joy Tour on Friday, February 4 at Resorts World in Monticello, NY. The first leg of the tour includes 18 dates with stops in Cleveland, Boston, New York, Chicago, Denver, San Francisco and more.
A second leg of the tour, which kicks off Tuesday, May 31 at Paramount Theatre in Austin, was also just announced with 17 new dates including stops in Dallas, Nashville, Cincinnati, Atlanta and more.

WHO: Andy Grammer
WHAT: Acclaimed multi-platinum pop singer and songwriter Andy Grammer, who is known for engaging, energizing and empowering audiences across the world with his chart-topping radio hits, has today announced his forthcoming The Art of Joy Tour. The 17-date run will kick off at Resorts World in Monticello, NY on Friday, February 4, 2022 with stops in Cleveland, Boston, New York, Chicago, Denver, San Francisco and more before wrapping on Thursday, March 3, 2022 at Uptown Theatre in Napa, CA.
The announcement comes on the heels of Andy’s new single “Damn It Feels Good To Be Me,” which he wrote about boldly owning your individuality. It leans into irreverent and rhythmic pop energy that will leave anyone feeling great after one listen. The song has been one of the most added tracks at Adult Pop radio the past two weeks, just charted and has 60 percent of the stations at the format already spinning the song. Coast to coast major market support includes KBIG/LA, K101/San Francisco, KDMX/Dallas, WWBX/Boston and WDVD/Detroit. The official music video was recently released and features Andy celebrating the uniqueness of people at a wild karaoke dance party. Click HERE to watch.
“Damn It Feels Good To Be Me” follows “Lease On Life,” a song created under the inspiration of a newfound perspective Andy gained during the pandemic. His second daughter was born two weeks into the lockdown, and as months rolled on with future touring and recording more uncertain than ever, he did a whole lot of soul-searching and grasped for meaning. Through personal analysis, some very helpful therapy, and a lot of time with his family, he began to derive self-worth from within rather than outside of himself, which helped realign his approach to music in the process.
Both tracks will be featured on Andy’s forthcoming fifth full-length album due out in early 2022.
TICKETS: Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, October 8 at 12 PM local time. There will be several pre-sales including a VIP pre-sale on Tuesday, October 5 at 10 AM local time, a Spotify pre-sale on Wednesday, October 6 at 10 AM local time and an artist pre-sale on Thursday, October 7 at 10 AM local time.

Andy, who is known for engaging, energizing and empowering audiences across the world with his chart-topping radio hits, wrote this song about boldly owning your individuality. He said of the track:
“The pandemic forced me to spend nearly two years stripped of the identity I had worked hard to create for myself in the world. I had the gift of time to re-examine a lot and realized that sometimes in an effort to fit in with culture I am tempted to turn myself down for the fear of not being accepted. So, I wrote ‘Damn It Feels Good To Be Me’ as a reminder to myself to follow the beat of my own drum. I want this song to be for those who have come to that point in their life where they’re just FINALLY enjoying the freedom of self-acceptance.”
“Damn It Feels Good To Be Me” leans into irreverent and rhythmic pop energy that will leave anyone feeling great after one listen. It is the first official single off Andy’s forthcoming fifth full-length album, due out in early 2022.
It follows “Lease On Life,” a song created under the inspiration of a newfound perspective Andy gained during the pandemic. His second daughter was born two weeks into the lockdown, and as months rolled on with future touring and recording more uncertain than ever, he did a whole lot of soul-searching and grasped for meaning. Through personal analysis, some very helpful therapy, and a lot of time with his family, he began to derive self-worth from within rather than outside of himself, which helped realign his approach to music in the process.
Stay tuned for more news from Andy soon.

June 28, 2021 (Los Angeles, CA) – Acclaimed multi-platinum pop singer and songwriter Andy Grammer is back to engage, energize and empower audiences with his anthemic new song “Lease On Life.” The track is available everywhere today via Giant Soul/S-Curve/Hollywood Records.
Click HERE to listen.
At the onset of the global pandemic, Andy’s life changed again. His second daughter was born two weeks into the lockdown, and as months rolled on with future touring and recording more uncertain than ever, he did a whole lot of soul-searching and grasped for meaning. Through personal analysis, some very helpful therapy, and a lot of time with his family, he began to derive self-worth from within rather than outside of himself, which helped realign his approach to music in the process. Under the inspiration of this newfound perspective, he penned “Lease On Life.”
“This song speaks to the rare moments in life where I have clarity, where I feel like I’m on the top of the mountain and I can see for miles,” said Andy. “I’m always trying to get there. Sometimes nature helps, meditation, prayer or just time with my family. I need those reminders, we all need those reminders that there is more in front of us then behind us.”
On the track, delicately plucked acoustic guitar curls around his verses as tambourine and handclaps pick up momentum towards a bold bridge. It culminates on the chant, “Everything’s gonna be alright…got a brand new lease on life.”
Andy recently surprised fans on their doorsteps with a live performance of the song. Click HERE to watch their reactions and HERE to watch the lyric video.
“Lease On Life” notably soundtracks a major global advertising campaign by International Hotel Group (Holiday Inn Express, Intercontinental, Kimpton). The commercial has already amassed nearly 10 million YouTube views. Andy also premiered it on CNN’s Graduation 2021: A CNN Special Event where Vice President Kamala Harris delivered the keynote address.
“Lease On Life” is the first new song off Andy’s forthcoming fifth full-length album. Stay tuned for more news from him soon.
