About Me

Andy got into music since he was 3 and heard Elvis sing "Good Rockin' Tonight", though he picked up the guitar much later, he also plays the piano as well as sings in Henry Ford Community College with the Concert Choir and sang with Blue Fuison;a vocal jazz group, where he's developed a deep appreciation for various musical genres including Choral music. Andy's start to music came as a result of not being able to compete in competive sports due to a heart condition which he had two open heart operations. Outside of music he is also a communications major at the University of Michigan- Dearborn."I've been playing music for a while, just thought I'd give this website a shot. I've always loved to sing since I was little, and have been lucky to play the guitar, piano, and trumpet, and sing in several choirs. I write music, but if I have a dry=spell I know there is a lot of music out there that is worth playing." I'm happy to share some of my music with you... I'd like to take the time to thank you all for checking this page, and hope that you leave with a smile on your face. Layout powered by HOT FreeLayouts Newest / Music / Movies
