GAVIN DEGRAW: SINGER/SONGWRITER

Gavin DeGraw, released his 4th studio album SWEETER, the pop rock singer/songwriter from New York, is on a roll. Two of the songs on the album were produced by Ryan Teddar. ‘Sweeter’, and ‘Not Over You’,  are two of the songs included in the list of records that earned Teddar the Grammy Nomination for Producer of the Year for 2011, along with various others.


In August, DeGraw was assaulted in New York City, by a group of men who attacked him in the early morning hours near The National Underground. Minutes after the attack he was struck by a taxi. He was hospitalized with a broken nose, a concussion, two black eyes and cuts to the face. But no worries, he was back at it after a very short recovery period.

Gavin along with his brother, Joey, opened the The National Underground in December 2007, a New York City music venue that is a roots rock Americana music bar located in Manhattan's Lower East Side.  They developed the venue so they would have a place to hang out, and where other musicians could come and listen and enjoy good music.

DeGraw has had success with top charting songs like ‘I Don’t Want To Be’, 'In Love With A Girl’, ‘Chariot’ and his latest single ‘Not Over You’. He has appeared on Leno, Letterman, Ellen, Regis & Kelly, and toured with Sister Hazel, The Barenaked Ladies, Maroon 5, Train, Jason Mraz, The Allman Brothers Band, and more,  and most recently with David Cook. In February he is off on a European Tour. His music is associated with various movies and TV (One Tree Hill) shows, and on 12/23/11 he appeared on the CBS “Home For the Holidays” special.

SWEETER, is a little more low-key than the previous albums, but a definite album for the Gavin DeGraw fans, and interested persons. The pop/rock musician will get you rocking and singing along to the well written songs and production of this studio album. He is a guy to watch, as he gets better with each album.
