Flowery Branch, Georgia native Andrew Jannakos grew up in a small-town neighborhood where barbecue parties and backyard soccer games were everyday events. Today, that sense of community translates to his over one million followers across Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Since Jannakos first teased his breakout single, “Gone Too Soon,” in a viral clip now viewed over ten million times, that community is only getting stronger.

"It’s been so amazing seeing it all happen,” Jannakos says of his social and streaming success. "Especially when I first posted, being an independent artist at the time. One moment no one knows who you are, and then something goes viral. Then the numbers keep going up, and you realize it’s something more.

”Many of Jannakos’ initial followers knew him for his illustrious run on season 16 of NBC’s The Voice, but it wasn’t until a year later, in July 2020,that his then-girlfriend (now wife)posted a video of him cooking dinner while singing along to “Gone Too Soon” to his TikTok and took his social stardom to new heights.

His singing and songwriting come from a deep love for country music, as well as his family’s roots in the genre. "My grandfather played in a bluegrass band for years and years in Georgia,” he says. “So I was raised on country: Waylon, Hank, Whitley, Brooks & Dunn. My earliest memories of singing were in the car going to elementary school, when my mom and I would just belt Shania Twain the whole way there."
