Alternative pop songster Andy Davis keeps busy in ‘09 with brand new music and a solid touring schedule. Answering demands for more piano and soaring falsetto, Davis launches a creative partnership with BriteEntertainment.com in March ‘09, releasing two exclusive songs every month for a year to Brite’s subscribers. Davis also hits the road in March with the rising stars of Nashville’s alt-pop scene, as the Ten Out Of Tenn tour hits South by Southwest and the entire west coast. Following the Ten Out of Tenn Tour, Davis heads out on his own headlining tour, beginning in his own stomping grounds of the Southeast, rapidly covering all major US markets.
Earning comparisons from Ben Folds to Paul Simon to Billy Joel, this Nashville-based 26-year-old embraces a range of styles, influences and genres. Davis’ hip twist on classic songwriting is no longer an internet secret either—selling over 25K records independently, Davis released his last album Let The Woman exclusively through Barnes & Noble (Debuted 4 on Barnes & Noble Bestseller List).
Let the Woman was recorded “old-school” in ten straight days with renowned producer Mitchell Froom (Sheryl Crow, Paul McCartney, Elvis Costello, Randy Newman). Following its release, Davis logged miles on the road during 2008, sharing the stage with the likes of Jakob Dylan, Tyler Hilton, Matt Wertz, Need to Breathe, Dave Barnes and more.
While appearing on the Ten Out of Tenn summer and Christmas tours (other artists include Griffin House, Erin McCarley, Katie Herzig), Davis’ song “Beautiful Day For Bad News” received a significant nod from USA Today as “Pick of the Week” (Aug ’08). Davis’ songs have also appeared in ABC Family’s Beautiful People.
In 2007, Davis earned industry accolade when he was presented with ASCAP's Leon Brettler Award -- given to the most outstanding songwriter featured in the Nashville Workshop Series.

I was really bummed I couldn't make your 'Walnut Room' show last night... but I sent friends!! And... they LOVED you!! They rubbed it in my face non-stop today, telling me what an awesome show I missed. I'm slightly comforted by the fact that I will see you in December/ TOT Tour... but not the same as catching your full set. Safe travels!
