Andrew Shockley, AKA Delafaye, started recording on a gifted eight track recorder in middle school. Several years down the road, he released his self-recorded, self-produced debut EP "The Hilltop" with, in his own words, "zero expectations". The lead single for "The Hilltop" EP, "Time and Money" (which he recorded on an iPhone) quickly garnered a great deal of attention resulting in regular playlist rotation on the radio, being signed to Street Mission Records, and supporting San Fermin, Cory Brannan, Blank Range, Arlie and many others. "Time and Money" also gained Delafaye a nomination for Singer-Songwriter of the Year at the Louisville Music Awards. "Time and Money" currently has over 1.5 million listens on Spotify alone.
Constantly creating, Delafaye has spent the last year re-establishing his roots in his new Indiana home. Moving to a new house, and more importantly taking with him his home studio (Beechwood Studios) which forms at integral part of his home life, he crafted a brand-new batch of songs that are laced with the melancholy synonymous with Delafaye’s sound. ‘Dog Day’ is the latest in a recent run of singles from his Beechwood sessions.
