AP Mercury, the songwriting alias of Andrew Pendleton, crafts ballads that explore life’s fleeting nature and overlooked characters. His songs weave tales of loss, love, solitude, and grief, while confronting humanity’s waste of paradise. Spanning alternative rock, indie folk, and alt-country, they echo the 20th-century American songbook with vivid lyrics and harmonies. AP’s music champions kindness and community, exposing the pain of betrayal and the hope for redemption. Some tracks embrace a darker edge, reflecting hidden struggles and a quiet rebellion against modern excess. Raw, emotional, and authentic, these unmastered recordings capture stories that demand a deep listen to uncover what’s right—and wrong—in today’s world.

*All songs are written and performed by Andrew Pendleton as AP Mercury. Unreleased recordings are preserved for creative purposes, not yet available for streaming or purchase.
