David Shaw (musician)

Shaw's eponymous solo album was released in May 2021, accompanied by five singles, "Got Me Feeling Good," "Heavy Soul," "Shivers," "Shaken," and "Promised Land". The release was followed by his solo tour.

In a 2021 interview, Shaw told ABC Audio that over the years with The Revivalists, he had written songs that he decided were not right for the band; material that was more personal and stripped down to only his voice and a guitar. As a result, he recorded a solo album with some of these songs called David Shaw. The album, which has rock, country and soul influences, was released in May 2021 on Yokoko Records/C3 Records, just before Shaw rejoined The Revivalists for the first full band tour since the beginning of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic.

With The Revivalists, Shaw has recorded four full-length albums: Vital Signs in 2010, City of Sound in 2014, Men Amongst Mountains in 2015, and Took Good Care in 2018. The band's breakout single, "Wish I Knew You" from Men Amongst Mountains, went to No. 1 on Billboard's Adult Alternative and Alternative radio charts in 2016, and sold over one million copies. The Revivalists have also released two EPs: The Revivalists in 2008, and Made In Muscle Shoals in 2020.

Shaw and Feinberg formed The Revivalists in 2007, recruiting first drummer Andrew Campanelli, then later adding bassist George Gekas, pedal steel guitarist Ed Williams, and saxophonist Rob Ingraham. Keyboardist and trumpeter Michael Girardot joined the band in 2012, and drummer and percussionist PJ Howard in 2017.

Shaw was born in Hamilton, Ohio. After graduating from Hamilton High School in 2001, he attended Miami University Hamilton and Columbus State Community College, ending his studies at Ohio State University where he earned a degree in business management with an emphasis in construction management. Shaw moved to New Orleans, Louisiana after he graduated.
