About Me

This is myspace for the experimental music of Purple, Manchester. (aka Andy Ward)

the story of a song...
for Christmas Vicky bought me a guitar and on the 7th April 2001 I uploaded faster to my website after a very productive evening with Tom (Pest/Fedka The Irritant) and Pasta (aka Saffrolla) we (well they) created a song that is now known by the title of 'Andy’s Song.' God bless them. Thanks to everyone else that helped.
andy's song can be found here
