About Me


"Extreme talent. The best voice I have heard on someone his age. Place a guitar in his hand, a mic to his voice and you've got yourself an amazing sound" (Music Teacher: John Curtin College of the Arts)
"Keep an eye on this boy; he's only just begun on this journey. You'd never judge the speed of a car when it's parked would you? Wait till this guy plants a foot on the ignition because I have a feeling he's not going to stick to the speed limit" (Star Search: 2005)
"Such a naturally gifted voice. Andrew holds an abundant array of skill and potential. A brilliant performer, I have great respect for Andrew and his musical abilities" (Cam Harris: MCC Music Program)
"One of the most talented musicians I have ever met. He has knack for picking up a new skill with little apparent effort, and he has an insane ear for music. Always passionate about anything and everything he turns himself to" (Phil Bertram: Piano Teacher)
"His self confidence is of someone much older and I am continually impressed by his abilities" (David Mumford: Musician)
"Exceptional. Andrew always provides his audience with astrong performance presence. Has massive potential" (Andrew Snedden: The Asia/Pacific Music Academy)

Off To Sydney! - 12/4/08
The last few nights have been composed of mainly coffee, minimal sleep, and a fair share of arguments... but nevertheless, the EP is finally on it's way to Sydney to be mastered!
It's been a long wait for many people, but I can assure you that the wait is well worth it. All the tracks are sounding frecken sweet!
Keep an eye out for the official release of the EP - which shouldn't be too far away.
Thanks to Josh (The Rewards Room) for lending loads of quality time - always making sure that every recording, mix, and edit is right on the dot. Cheers mate.
