Hire: Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors
Drew Holcomb & the Neighbors is an American band led by singer-songwriter Drew Holcomb. The group, founded in 2006, blends elements of Americana, folk, rock, and country in their music, known for its heartland sound and introspective lyrics. Hailing from Memphis, Tennessee, and later based in Nashville, the band’s music is influenced by Southern storytelling and soul, drawing from personal experiences, love, loss, and hope.
Early Beginnings
Drew Holcomb, the frontman, started his musical career after graduating from the University of Tennessee. Inspired by the music of Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Bruce Springsteen, Holcomb began writing songs that reflect life’s struggles, triumphs, and everyday beauty. The Neighbors originally included Drew’s wife, Ellie Holcomb, who contributed vocals and songwriting to the group until stepping back in 2015 to focus on her solo career and family life.
In 2009, Holcomb and his band toured heavily, and supported several national acts, including Susan Tedeschi, Ryan Adams, Los Lobos, The Avett Brothers, Robert Earl Keen, and Marc Broussard. In late 2009, the band appeared alongside Pat Green, Billy Joe Shaver, and Darryl Worley on the PBS TV show Legends and Lyrics.
