Born Michael Anderson\, he grew up in a household where gospel music was favored and his grandfather was a Bapt ist preacher. There wasn't much pop or rock music in the Anderson househol d\, so Michael tended to latch on to whatever he heard and analyze it care fully\, trying to make sense of the bits and pieces of sound that comprise d Led Zeppelin or Michael Jackson. When he was ten\, Michael first began l earning how to play guitar\, but while his peers taught themselves by play ing covers\, Michael found that frustrating\, and instead focused on writi ng and performing his own songs. By the time he was in seventh grade\, Mic hael had formed a band with his friends and made his stage debut\, perform ing at a school talent show. By 2009\, Michael had turned professional and was performing with his band the Deputies\, and as Mike Anderson\, he rel eased his first album\, Closing Credits for a Fire. A year later\, Michael had changed his stage moniker to Anderson East and released an EP\, Fire Demos. Anderson traveled to Los Angeles to record his next album\, 2012's Flowers of the Broken Hearted\, which included backing from studio aces Wa ddy Wachtel\, Rob Wasserman\, and Don Heffington. As word of mouth spread about Anderson and his music\, he crossed paths with producer Dave Cobb\, who was at the controls for critically acclaimed albums by Sturgill Simpso n and Jason Isbell. When Cobb launched his own label\, Low Country Sound\, distributed by Elektra Records\, Anderson was brought on board\, and his major-label debut\, Delilah\, was released in July 2015. Delilah peaked at two on Billboard's Heat Seekers chart\, with "Satisfy Me" reaching 18 on its AAA chart. In August 2017\, East released "All on My Mind\," the first single from his second album\, Encore\; subsequently released in January 2018.
