Although just now an adult himself, 24-year-old Donny Anderson has been expressing himself through his mature and experienced voice since the age of 13. Possessing the soulful understanding of someone beyond his years but still capturing the innocence of youth in his music, Donny has that rare ability of transcending genres and styles. "I like to include both my personal encounters with life as well as stories I have learned from others into my songs," Donny says. "It allows me to relate to teenagers and grandparents alike. It's that universal language of music that is so beautiful to me."
Born in Lindsay, a small town in Ontario, Canada, Donny discovered his incredible talent while singing a duet with his friend in seventh grade. From that moment on, Donny embarked on a journey that would take him all over Canada and eventually the United States. Before even graduating from high school, Donny was opening for such notable acts as Terri Clark, Doc Walker, Lila McCann, Little Big Town and many others, playing venues like Phoenix Concert Hall, the Civic Centre in Ottawa and CNE in Toronto. With his first demo in hand, he earned spots on the Canadian Showcase in Nashville, Tennessee during the CMA Music Festival (formerly known as Fan Fair), as well as the Havelock Jamboree in Canada. He began performing anywhere from three to five shows a week, his life consisting of traveling, writing, singing and performing.
Now an established singer and songwriter, Donny has seen his music receive considerable airplay overseas including markets in Australia and Holland. With some time spent back in the Nashville, his main concentration now involves recording and writing some current demos with hit songwriter Gilles Godard, Grammy and Dove award winning producer Joe Hogue and multi-platinum engineer and producer Michael Hanson as well as many other music veterans who recognize his extraordinary ability.
His ability to transcend makes him approachable. His warm personality and smile make him endearing. But as Donny continues to write, record and perform live, it will be his singing and music that make him a star. His many influences will always be fuel for his inspiration, but his voice, that soulful powerhouse that shakes listeners to their core during impossibly perfect notes, will prove long lasting
