Humbled by more than 30 awards from numerous Country and Gospel Music Associations, including Entertainer of the Year, Country Song and Album of the Year, plus the Patriotic Song of the Year, Andrew Dean is your typical family man, with his heart in the right place. CHRISTMAS FOR FAMILIES, theme song for the upcoming Trenton/Ellsworth Maine event of the same name, was co-written by Dean and his Tennessee promoter Rhonnie Scheuerman at the request of event coordinator DJ Tommy Dean.

Nashville NITE*SKY records recording artist Andrew Dean hails from Toledo Ohio and Pigeon Forge Tennessee. With strong vocals and country roots this young country and Gospel singer, songwriter, entertainer, and producer is a fan-favorite at concerts featuring music from his double CD A New Horizon & The Harvest.

Dean relates his faith in God in his songs, blending family-style country, southern gospel, bluegrass, patriotic, and inspirational music. "It's part of my roots and who I am," he said. "I'm very blessed to do what I can for the children, Veterans and their families, and those in physical and spiritual need.”

Accepting the call to full-time musical evangelism, Andrew, his wife Terri and their two children travel extensively around the world as they help others find healing, comfort and joy with their uplifting message of hope. National President Ann Sherman, of Gold Star Mothers requested Andrew to present his self-penned song IN A MOTHER’S EYES (Patriotic Song of the Year) for their 2004 convention in Norfolk Virginia. The Gold Star Mothers’ function is to provide support for mothers of fallen soldiers. A full house gathered, due to many casualties resulting from the War in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Dean is known for his high-energy concerts, opening for Terri Clark among others. In Nashville, southern Ohio, and Pigeon Forge Tennessee Andrew has been asked to join Johnny Cash’s sister Joanne Cash Yates during several performances at churches and theaters, as well as their Cowboy Church in Nashville.

Receiving tremendous support around the world for his diverse musical styles, Andrew has reached 3rd most played artist in the world on the Worldwide Mainstream Major and Independent Country chart, and has achieved the 10th most played gospel artist. "Everybody Loves A DJ" hit #1 on the ECMA European Country Music Association chart September 25, 2005. "Thanks goes first to God, then to my lovely wife Terri, who has stood beside me through long days and nights at the studio, concerts, and many events we attend."
