Tunes by Denzel Andrew

Denzel is an all around frontman. Whether he's singing and playing his guitar, or hosting your event. Denzel creates an atmosphere that is both fun and professional.

Denzel Andrew is a New Orleans born musician/comedian. Andrews passion for comedy began at a young age. Denzel vividly remembers standing up to a bully in the 1st grade by bombarding him with a mantra of “mama jokes” and embarrassing him on the playground at recess. Andrew studied the great Eddie Murphy and learned with the right combination of bravado, timing, and demeanor one could make magic!

Denzel began playing music at the age of 9 when he learned to play the clarinet/saxophone. Denzel grew up a big fan of the St. Augustine Marching 100 (One of the best High School bands in the country). Where his older brother Vandell Andrew (now a Billboard topping saxophonist) became a celebrity of the city and drum major in 2004. This was a title that Denzel saw as a perfect fit for him when the time came, a drum major is a leader, master musician, and crowd pleaser all in one. Tragedy struck when Denzel was putting on his St Augustine band uniform for the first football game of the season (a moment he’s been waiting for for years). He was told by a very bitter senior “Go home man, there’s a storm coming and the game is cancelled”.

Displaced by hurricane Katrina the Andrew family moved to Irving Texas in August 2005. The band at Denzel’s new school was quite different from the band he spent years preparing to be a part of. Where Denzel was from all the cool guys played music, here they were called “band geeks”. Culture shocked, homesick and confused Denzel quit the band and began taking acting classes and participating in plays at KD Studio Acting Conservatory, where he later attended college and graduated in 2011. This is where Andrew fell in love with the theatre and he began exploring stand up comedy! He also combined his love for music and comedy by teaching himself guitar and began writing musical comedy songs.

Denzel has spent the last 3 years hosting trivia events throughout the DFW area and sharpening his bag of many tools! Well versed in acting, music, and comedy Denzel is a true artiste, a gun-slinger with many types of ammo in the field of entertainment!
