Growing far beyond his classical roots, Andrew Abaria sets his sights on writing and performing intricate pop songs that are as clever as they are powerful. This Los Angeles based Asian-American singer-songwriter is able to blend his seemingly boundless vocal ability with deceptively understated and heartfelt melodies.
In 2013, Andrew released "We Are the Underdogs," a five-original song EP produced by Mario Marchetti, who is known for producing and writing for Billboard-topping artists, such as Demi Lovato and JoJo. "We Are the Underdogs" is a collection of personal songs reflecting not only on moments of struggle and heartache, but also of hope and triumph. Andrew draws inspiration from his own life: Andrew grew up in a three bedroom house shared by 10 people, and his parents are Filipino immigrants who worked multiple jobs to pay for his schooling and piano lessons. The title track "We Are the Underdogs" serves as an anthem of determination despite life's obstacles.
As 2014 comes to a close, Abaria delivers a mighty new holiday track, "Maybe you'll kiss me this Christmas" produced by David Pramik. In the new year expect Andrew to hit the ground running with a variety of singles and live performances.
