The Eye

Having played many covers ranging across genres such as heavy rock, punk, MOR just about anything from Pink Floyd to Van Halen, help Andy craft his passion.

Andy’s main influences come from his heroes, Gary Moore, Mark Knofler, and Dave Gilmore. Others of his personal favourites are Damien Rice album, Avril, Puddle of Mud, Jimmy Eats World, Hoobastank, Sting, He could go on and on, and in his own words there are really far too many to list!

The CD (One by One)

So how did that come about, Andy’s 1st CD was called scrapbook, chosen as it was a collection of 12 songs written over his life collected in an audio scrapbook, this contained scribbled lyrics and chords sequences that changed greatly over the years, this CD was produced in very small numbers and was given to people to review/provide feedback. The intention was then to gather a band together, head to a recording studio, and record an album. This proved to be too much of a challenge with balancing a day job that required much travel, and in finding other musicians to colaborate with. Undeterred, Andy chose to forge ahead by building a home recording studio, using an old PC, and an inexpensive soundcard. Andy then wrote the somgs and recorded the 2nd album on his own, playing all the instruments, and adding vocals. The name One, came from the fact this was to be the 1st commercially available CD and all recorded by one person, friends on myspace started to refer to Andy as One, so later the CD was entittled One by one…

Andy worked on his CD through 07′ enjoying the creative atmosphere and ambiance of Crosshaven in Ireland where he was also working at the time. The CD tracks reflect a story, running through life, which he hopes you’ll enjoy listening to.

What the fans say:

Throughout this album there is an unmistakable talent on both the music and lyrics. You are taken on a journey of heartfelt emotions of a man that just wants/needs to love and be loved. Also along the way you get an insight into the man behind the lyrics and music. The words are from the heart and that’s the best way to express them. The guitar playing, be it acoustic or electric, is absolutely awesome. When there are no words the emotions still come through the guitar.

I have listened to your CD over and over again, Andy. I love it! ‘Runaway’ is STILL my all-time favourite.

This music was made for the Airwaves, showing talent in both song writing and musical performance, I would pay generously to see a live performance of that quality.
