Accompanying Shaw on the upcoming outing is an ensemble of talented musicians and friends including PJ Howard [drums] and Chris Gelbuda [guitar] – who also appear on David Shaw – as well as Pete Murano [guitar], Andriu Yanovski [Keys], and Noah Young [bass].
“I’m extremely excited to bring this new project out on the road. These songs were made to be played LIVE,” shares Shaw. “It’s going to be very interesting to see how they evolve with the addition of a very important ingredient to the mix. All of you! I can’t wait to see all those faces I’ve missed over this past year. You know who you are! See you all real soon!”
Produced by Jack Splash (4-time Grammy award-winning producer of Kendrick Lamar, Alicia Keys, Solange, Valerie June, St Paul and The Broken Bones), the recently released 12-track LP showcases Shaw’s true self, exemplifying his hard-working and courageous nature as he placed a renewed focus on self-care and personal growth – PRESS HERE to listen. With his new music, The Revivalists front man and enigmatic talent follows the direction of his own internal compass as a solo artist, riling up his raw rock n roll impulses as he opens up like never before as a lyricist, poet, and storyteller. David Shaw features the singles “Got Me Feeling Good,” “Heavy Soul,” “Shivers,” “Shaken” and “Promised Land,” which have collectively garnered nearly three million streams and received early support from Billboard, SPIN, NPR, Rolling Stone, and American Songwriter. In addition to Howard and Gelbuda, Shaw’s backing band on the album also features Neal Francis [vocals/guitar] and Mike Starr [bass].
Tomorrow, Friday, June 4, Shaw will conclude his 5-show weekly livestream series “From The City To The Swamp” via Mandolin at Chicago’s legendary venue The Metro with a performance featuring new songs from the album, deep cuts, acoustic versions, and more.

Shaw initially planted the seeds for his new solo songs as he toured behind The Revivalists’ acclaimed album Take Good Care, playing to sold-out venues and their biggest festival crowds to date (including opening for The Rolling Stones). In addition to their platinum breakout single “Wish I Knew You” and four studio albums, the chart-topping band has racked up 525 million global streams, numerous Alternative and Triple A chart hits including several #1s, and major media recognition and TV appearances including Austin City Limits, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Ellen, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and TODAY. Shaw also spearheaded the creation of The Revivalists’ Rev Causes, the band’s philanthropic umbrella fund which supports the essential work of organizations handpicked by the band dedicated to reviving and investing in our communities, health, and environment. These organizations include Center for Disaster Philanthropy, National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), Songs for Kids Foundation, Upturn Arts, Everytown for Gun Safety, and more. As a proud Ohio native, David also created, produces, and hosts the Big River Get Down in Hamilton, OH, – an annual two-night concert event that gives back to the ongoing renaissance of his hometown, donating all proceeds to the City of Hamilton’s 4 of July fireworks and RiversEdge Concert Series.
This summer, The Revivalists will return to the stage with back-to-back reduced capacity shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on June 10 and 11 with Neal Francis supporting. The acclaimed eight-piece band is also set to perform at Railbird Festival in Lexington, KY on August 28 and at The Fillmore in New Orleans on October 16 for Jazz Fest.
