Biography
Andrew has established himself as an accomplished composer, producer and musician, not only through his releases with Zohar, Graceland, Jessica Lauren and a host of other artists, but also through his writing for television and film.
Although best known as a bass player, on both bass guitar and double bass, Andrew has studied tabla and sitar in India, plays guitar, Chapman Stick, Hang, keyboards, udu, harmonium, darabuka and a host of other percussion instruments, many found on his travels (during which he has also made his own recordings ranging from the chants of young Buddhist monks in the Himalayas, to the sounds of the Amazon rain forest in Brazil).
He has worked with musicians from across the globe in a wide variety of settings, including Narada Michael Walden, Terry Callier, Nitin Sawhney, Khaled, Paul Schutze, Jessica Lauren and Richard Horowitz, and it is perhaps this along with his multi-instrumental abilities that have resulted in him becoming increasingly in-demand as a composer.
Andrew holds a Masters Degree in Music with Merit from the University of Surrey, where he studied composition with Sebastian Forbes and Steve Goss.
