Andy Grammer made his debut on ABC's "Good Morning America" this morning. The acclaimed platinum-selling singer, songwriter, musician performed his new single "Back Home" alongside his band and full drum line; watch the performance HERE. "Back Home" is the first single off ANDY's forthcoming album MAGAZINES OR NOVELS, due out August 5 on S-Curve Records, and available now for pre-order at http://smarturl.it/magazinesornovels.
MAGAZINES OR NOVELS marks the Los Angeles-based musician's second album release and follow-up to his 2011 self-titled debut album which featured the massive hits "Keep Your Head Up," "Fine By Me," and "Miss Me." The 11-track collection reinforces ANDY's place among the male pop artist elite through honest reflections of the impressive ride he's been on during the past couple of years. Watch ANDY talk about MAGAZINES OR NOVELS and his journey through the songwriting process here: http://youtu.be/ZJQV2LQ01gM.
"While I was writing this album I kept seeing magazine and newspaper stands with their constantly changing covers and headlines and thinking how they come and go so fast," explains ANDY of the album title. "I had to write about 100 songs to get 13 I felt had something grounded and timeless about it. I don't know if I achieved my goal but I hope I was able to create songs that were timeless and not something that would come and go off the newsstands. I hope this collection of songs can have the staying power in someone's life like a favorite novel or book."
The official music video for "Back Home" exclusively premiered on Billboard.com; watch the colorful clip that features ANDY performing to a crowd of over 9,000 people here: http://youtu.be/REHfRCYvie8.
