Who Is Bryan Andrews?
Bryan Andrews, born on August 16, 1996, in the state of Missouri, and now aged 29 years, is an American country singer-songwriter, known for his blend of heartfelt storytelling with country (small town) authenticity in his music.
More than anywhere else, he rose to fame through his @bryanandrewsmusic TikTok account, where he shares his original songs, live performances, and everyday humor.
Now… before signing with Disruptor Records (a division of Sony Music Entertainment) in May 2025, Bryan spent years working as a welder while writing songs in hotel rooms.
His journey from blue-collar worker to major-label artist has made him one of country music’s most relatable new voices, especially among Gen Z.
And… no, Bryan is not a Gen Z; he is a Millennial but not to worry, The GenZStars Team will just go ‘head and you everything else there’s to know about him, regardless. :))
Early Life
Bryan Andrews was born and raised in Carrollton, Missouri, a small town that remains a huge part of his identity. Though he briefly lived in Idaho as a child, his family would later return to Missouri, where he grew up surrounded by music, small-town values, and community support.
His parents’ influence as music teachers shaped his early love for performance. However, his adult life was far from glamorous; he spent quite a few years working on the road as a welder, battling personal struggles with alcohol and mental health, which he now channels into his songwriting.
