Bio
Chariot, Gavin DeGraw’s J Records debut, introduces the world to a vital,
magnetic young artist
whose
abundant talent and charisma are already well known to New York clubgoers. The 11-song
collection
is
a
remarkably accomplished and compelling first effort, offering the same combination of raw
emotion
and
eloquent songcraft that originally drew hometown fans to the 26-year-old
singer/songwriter/pianist/guitarist’s live shows.
In a remarkably short time, DeGraw’s effortlessly intimate, emotionally intense live
performances
have
made him the toast of Manhattan’s downtown music scene, building public anticipation for the
release
of his first studio album.
Chariot doesn’t disappoint. On such emotionally forthright, melodically arresting originals as
“Just
Friends,” “Crush” and “Follow Through,” DeGraw writes lyrics that muse on life and love with a
hard-won insight that belies his age. And he sings his songs in a gently raspy, effortlessly
emotive
voice that carries a level of emotional depth that’s remarkable for one so young, conveying the
elation of love and the pain of heartbreak with equal assurance.
