BIO

Included on Music Mecca's "Top 10 2023 Nashville Indie Releases" and featured on Spotify’s ‘Got Blues’ and ‘Best Blues of 2022’ editorial playlists,  Andy Kahrs’ distinct blend of roots genres shines with powerful vocals and a unique guitar style that bring his southern roots and storytelling sensibilities to life. His authentic tone draws equally from Randy Travis and Otis Redding, yet stands out as uniquely his own. Originally from Atlanta, GA, Kahrs has been a resonating voice and creative presence in the Nashville, TN music community since 2018.. 

Kahrs has worked with grammy-winning producers Zach Allen (Keb’ Mo’, Kingfish) and Bobby Holland (Maggie Rose, ZZ Ward) for recent releases, and is currently wrapping up a self-produced LP for a 2025 release. In addition to touring his original music, Kahrs performs across the US as the lead singer and guitarist in ‘Rhinestone: The Songs of Glen Campbell’, paying tribute to one of country’s music’s brightest stars while raising awareness for Alzheimer’s research. Kahrs has opened for country music legend Lacy J. Dalton, and shared stages with grammy-award winning violinist Mads Tolling.

With thousands of monthly Spotify listeners and a busy touring schedule, Kahrs has made a name for himself as one to watch in the Americana scene. His upcoming 2025 LP continues to push well-worn boundaries of blues and slide guitar.
