About Me

Hello, my name is Andrzej. I am a folksinger currently living, and gigging, in Leicester. I usually get compared to Billy Bragg, Bob Dylan or Bright Eyes which is pretty damn cool I guess. Once some guy said I sounded like Fallout Boy but he was very wrong....

I do my own booking and will pretty much play for a pat on the head and a sandwich- so if you want me to play at your pub, bar, cafe, bookshop, protest, picket line, basement or house party then you can email me at andrzejjstepien-at-hotmail.com.

A have a new split EP out with fellow Wildcat, Al Baker! There is a recommended price of Â£3, but if you can't afford it, please either haggle or grab the free downloads off mine and Al's respective myspaces!
Why not fill out your email address and get on my mailing list?
