History: David Andrews grew up in the north of England as the son of a miner and of a Scottish 'immigrant' mother. Music has been a part of his life for as long as he has been alive, and his past includes a stint or two in some very odd groupings of people making music together. Now, as a 46 year old folk-singer living and working in the wild South-East of Finland, he is mainly employed in the field of his Master of Education degree: educational psychology.
