The Revivalists
BIOGRAPHY
The Revivalists have made the journey from hole-in-the-wall marathon gigs to sold-out headline shows at such hallowed venues as New York City’s Radio City Music Hall and Morrison, CO’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, multiplatinum success, and more than 1.6 billion worldwide streams thus far. The eight-piece New Orleans, LA-based band – David Shaw (lead vocals, guitar), Zack Feinberg (guitar), Andrew Campanelli (drums), George Gekas (bass), Ed Williams (pedal steel guitar), Rob Ingraham (saxophone), Michael Girardot (keyboard, trumpet), and PJ Howard (drums, percussion) – broke through with their third full-length studio recording, 2025’s RIAA Gold-certified Men Amongst Mountains, its success fueled by both the band’s growing recognition as a joyfully exciting live act as well as the chart-topping popular success of such fan favorites as “Keep Going” and of course, the 3x Platinum “Wish I Knew You,” the latter of which made history as The Revivalists’ first-ever #1 single. Further success followed – including three #1 hit singles, shows opening for The Rolling Stones, top-billed festival sets at Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Governors Ball, and New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, co-headlining the 2018 National Soccer Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony with Imagine Dragons at Texas’s Toyota Stadium, an unforgettable performance backing Ludacris at 2025’s On Location Super Bowl LIX pre-game party in New Orleans, standout television performances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, TODAY, Austin City Limits, and more. Hailed by NPR as “filled with anthemic choruses and catchy melodies that, I assure you, get stuck in your head on the first listen,” The Revivalists’ most recent album, 2023’s Pour It Out Into The Night, marked their most self-guided release to date, highlighted by such tracks as the #1 Triple A/Top 3 Alternative hit, “Kid” – the former’s most-played song of 2023. The collection was followed in 2024 by an expanded deluxe edition showcasing exclusive collaborations with such friends and fellow musicians as Dawes, The Head and the Heart, flipturn, Mannie Fresh, and the one and only Big Freedia.
In addition to their busy creative endeavors, The Revivalists have devoted themselves to philanthropic service through RevCauses, a nonprofit fund that supports the essential work of local and national organizations dedicated to reviving and investing in our communities, our health, and our environment. Supported by $1 from every ticket sold, fan donations and a variety of fundraising efforts, Rev Causes has raised more than $418,000 over the past six years.
2026 promises to be another landmark year for the band, highlighted by their long-awaited sixth studio album, Get It Honest, the inaugural The Revivalists Present Otherside of Paradise at Sea cruise vacation, a very special run supporting The Red Clay Strays, including New York City’s Madison Square Garden, and more.
