Andy
has been singing and playing music since before his hand was
big enough to reach all the strings on the guitar. Born in Akron,
Ohio,
he has lived and played all around the country, from Boston to
Los Angeles and places in between - and you can hear it in the
eclecticism of his music. With his roots in acoustic folk, and
fingers in
the cookie
jars of rock, country, blues and even a little jazz, there is
something for everyone. Whether singing about living in
the big bad
city or escaping into the desert or the mountains, Andy’s
songs will lock in your attention with their universal appeal.
His songs
will make you think, laugh, or just close your eyes and smile – touching
something both familiar and new.
With his new release, “It’s All True,” Andy offers
up a healthy batch of 14 songs to grab your ears and heart.
You’ll
find a breath of fresh air in songs like ‘Desert Sunrise’ and ‘Summer
Days’, commentary on the state of our world and our attitudes
in songs like ‘Waning Moon’ and ‘Dirty Streets’,
and clever twists on the politics of relationships in the crowd
pleasers ‘Traitor’ and ‘Good
Thing.’ And be sure to look for guest appearances by
Andy’s
brother Dave and Ralph Carney, who played sax with Tom Waits,
among others!
