David Andrews is a keyboard player and singer based in Portland, Oregon, who has been an integral part of the national music scene for over 25 years. Known for his poignant lyricism and a musical style characterized as “achingly beautiful and intelligent” by Performing Songwriter Magazine, David has built a reputation as a respected singer/songwriter. His journey in music began in 1990 when he co-founded the popular jam band CALOBO alongside his lifelong friend Caleb Klauder. Based in Portland, CALOBO achieved significant success as one of the nation’s prominent independent jam bands, largely due to extensive touring and a devoted fan base. Despite disbanding in 2001, the band sold approximately 150,000 records.

As the 21st century unfolded, the members pursued various projects, contributing to acts such as The Decemberists, Foghorn Stringband, Caleb Klauder Country Band, Black Prairie, and Macka Bella. In 2001, David released his second solo album, "Get Me Out of This Place," which received notable radio attention and facilitated national tours across cities including New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Nashville, and Austin during the SXSW Music Festival. This followed the success of his debut album, "The Little Things," which appeared on three Northwest Top 20 charts.

During a tour, David recorded an EP titled "Waiting for Henry" while in Chicago. His musical journey then led him to Nashville, Tennessee, where he recorded his fourth album, "Everything to Lose," in 2004 under the guidance of producer Marvin Etzioni (Counting Crows). The album featured contributions from an array of distinguished musicians associated with acts like Wilco, Bob Dylan, Dixie Chicks, Rod Stewart, Jackson Browne, and John Mayer. This release propelled David and his band on a 10-month tour across the U.S. and Europe, garnering radio play and sales that reached international audiences in Japan, Belgium, Italy, Holland, Australia, the UK, and Denmark.

After developing a fondness for Boise, Idaho, David relocated there in 2005. In 2008, he released "Live at the VAC," a full-length recording comprising previously unrecorded live performance tracks specifically written for the project. This album featured an expanded sound through the addition of a horn section, a string section, and various backup singers.

In 2009, David shifted his focus to charitable fundraising concerts, including a notable performance for the Special Olympics Winter Games Donors, which fostered a strong community bond in Boise. He headlined the NBC-televised closing ceremonies, performing for a sold-out audience of 11,000. In 2010, he collaborated with jazz artist and Emmy-nominated Curtis Stigers for a Christmas benefit concert at the Egyptian Theater, which included recording the holiday single "Christmas Day." This track has become a seasonal staple on Boise radio and is available on iTunes. David's most recent release, a five-song sampler titled "Innocent Eyes," was created to support various charities, and he continues to perform regularly, often for philanthropic causes.
