Gavin DeGraw

American singer-songwriter Gavin DeGraw was born in South Fallsburg, New York, on February 4, 1977. After various experiences in bands as a teenager, he attended the famous Berklee College of Music in Boston (Massachusetts) at the age of twenty, before being spotted in a New York club and releasing his debut album Chariot in 2003. Success followed in the wake of the single "I Don't Want to Be", which enjoyed international success. An adept of pop-rock music fueled by a blue-eyed soul sensibility, Gavin DeGraw then maintains respectable success with albums Gavin DeGraw (2008), Free (2009), Sweeter (2011) and Make a Move (2013). 2016 saw the release of Something Worth Saving, which, like its predecessors, made the rounds on the world sales charts. Several years pass, prolonged by the Covid-19 pandemic, before the artist returns to the studio. In 2022, he released the introspective Face the River, his first album in six years, evoking the death of his parents. After signing with Sony Music Nashville and touring both sides of the Atlantic, 2024 saw the release of Chariot 20, celebrating the twentieth anniversary of her debut album with new, even more soulful versions and two previously unreleased songs.
