Andy can boast a wonderfully diverse musical background as both a writer
and performer, which is evident in his musical compositions.
His songwriting can be poignant or pop, sometimes with a quizzical flair.
With lyrics that run the gamut from sensitive love
ballad to intense and angular commentary on mental illness, his songs
can open the listener's mind and win them over.
With many years of experience as a professional musician,
Andy has enjoyed success as theatrical musical director,
music educator, arranger, sideman and, naturally, a songwriter.
His experience as a vocalist, on keyboards,
guitar, bass and/or percussion, allow him to effectively arrange and produce
