Andrew Dennis " Andy " Biersack ( born December 26th, 1990 ), formely known as Andy Six, is an American singer and pianist. He is the founder and lead vocalist for the American rock band Black Veil Brides, and is its only remaining original member. In May 2014, he started a solo music project under the moniker Andy Black and released his debut album The Shadow Side in 2016.
For his early education, Andy attended a Catholic elementary school, which he has spoken of in many interviews. His preschool teacher was Jamie Peters, who had a big influence on his creativity.
Because of the way Andy dressed and the music he listened to( i.e. The Misfits, Avenged Sevenfold, The Damned, The Dropkick Murphys, etc), he was the target of bullying at school. This bullying is reenacted in the " Knives And Pens " music video, performed by his band, Black Veil Brides.
For high school, Biersack attended Cincinnati´s school for Creative and Performing Arts, and majored in drama and vocal music.
Two days after he turned 18, he left school before graduating to move to Los Angeles in hopes of furthering his potential career.
At age 14, Andy Biersack and a few of his friends formed their first band, called " Biersack ". This project eventually grew into what would later be known as Black Veil Brides.

ANDY BLACK

On May 2014, Biersack revealed to Kerrang! magazine that he had been working on new music outside of Black Veil Brides under the moniker " Andy Black ". Andy´s inspiration for this project was his love for ´80s synth and goth music. He works with former BVB producer John Feldmann. Despite this project, he reassured his fans that this does not mean this is his primary focus, but rather more of a hobby or a side-project. On May 19th, 2014 he premiered his first song, titled " They Don´t Need To Understand ", online with a music video via Hot Topic.
On March 17th 2016 Biersack announced the title of his first Andy Black album The Shadow Side, scheduled to be released on May 6th, 2016. The lead single from the project " We Don´t Have To Dance " was released on March 18th 2016, with a music video for the song being released on March 21st.
On April 16th 2016 Biersack married former frontwoman of Automatic Loveletter, runnerup of The Voice season 2 and scientologist Juliet Simms.
