About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
She writes it, she plays it, she feels it. Canadian East Coast musician and songwriter Andrea Somers has returned to the stage. After years of performing and recording as both front and side woman with various bands, Somers has chosen a life of musical celibacy and is ready to embark on the long-overdue path to lonely solo land. Somers brings to the songwriting table, a style that spans from guitar-based rock to simple acoustic songs to beautiful piano compositions, and will captivate you with emotionally charged melodic hooks. With performances still in their youth, the live show is already creating a buzz that guarantees the audience to return. The crowd wants more, and there will be more! Andrea Somers is a femme who rocks hard! She is set to release her first full-length rock record in 2007 entitled 'Brave'.
