Hi fans! This is Andy streaming to you from Strand in the western cape of South Africa. If you want something fresh but timeless with a little retro attitude my debut solo album drops soon on Soundcloud and Youtube. These full band backed songs so far are a little taste of whats to come and are a sample of a much younger, more depressed and previously  unreleased me. 

Thanks to Corinne Cooper of the Rhodes University sound technology department and Caleb Aaron Lloyd for his guidance and professionalism as a supporting musician. 

The debut is entitled Andy and comprises the following songs 

                           ANDY

1 Requiem  for paradise  
2 Dear mom and dad 
3 Oh Ann (wherever you are)
4 Deadwood  
5 Wont you be my girl?
6 The Crunch

Andy plays a Yamaha 12 string acoustic guitar.  Caleb plays an Ibanez acoustic bass guitar. The album was recorded on a free voice recorder and produced with reverb and echo effect by Corinne Cooper.
