András Kállay-Saunders was born on January 28, 1985 in New York City to Hungarian model Katalin Kállay and American soul-singer and producer Fernando Saunders.

In 2010 Kallay decided to visit Hungary to spend time with his grandmother who was ill at the time. During his visit in Hungary he noticed a TV commercial urging talented singers to audition for the nations talent competition Megasztár.

Kállay ended up finishing fourth in the contest and shortly after signed to Universal and permanently moved to Hungary. Kállay released two singles under Universal, "Csak Veled" "I Love You" both of which became smash hits in Hungary, peaking respectively #7 and #2 on the Top 40 Hungarian Billboards.
In 2012 Kállay entered “A DAL” which is the Hungarian Eurovision Contest, but unfortunately did not make it to the Finals. Later that summer he released his single “Tonight” which reached the #3 spot on on the Top 40 Hungarian Billboards. December 20, 2012, Kállay released his single "My Baby" which also serves as his contribution in the Hungarian A Dal Eurovision Song Contest. On February 9 Kállay performed the song in the contest to critical acclaim, garnering 48 out of a maximum of 50 points voted by the jury. He won according to the judges votes, but placed 2nd in the end due to the countries votes.
Following the performance, My Baby catapulted to #1 on iTunes (Hungary). The music video for My Baby was released on February 8, 2013. My Baby peaked #1 on the Hungarian iTunes store on March 3, 2013, and charted #1 on the Hungarian Top 40 Radio Charts on April 11, 2013.

In 2014 Kallay decided to give A DAL another shot. He ended up winning and represented Hungary in the 2014 Eurovision Song Contest with his song “Running”. Placing 5th in the contest, Running became an instant hit. Running was listed in the Top 50 worldwide iTunes chart and was played on radio and TV all over Europe.

Kallay decided to continue his career in 2015 as “Kallay SAUNDERS Band” no longer being a solo act, and now they released their first album - Delivery Boy - this March.
