About Me

In the late 90's and early noughties Andrew Stewart and Zia Khan made some music. Like the pioneering avaitor the band took their name from they did not let lack of technical skill stand in the way of their ambitions. A dazzling mix of people joined in at times. Some shyly stepped up to a mic. Others shouted abuse while mixing records. Then Zia moved to London and designed furniture, lots of other people came and went. Now the band is the solo project of Andrew Stewart. Cadman the Aviator is a studio project with ideas bigger than its boots.Please leave a comment. It helps alot.
