It`s my name ;o)

No,I am releasing music purely for the enjoyment of listening and to express my lyrical talent.

I think it`s great,the more people that hear music the better.Radio sometimes doesn`t play the new artists.Internet has no boundaries.

Not sure,if the deal was right for me,I need the independence in my music.

Andy Goodwin would like to be known as a lyric writer,but the songs on both his albums to date suggest a rare talent in complete songwriting.With over 350 song lyrics written since the age of 17 there is a vast amount of songs that can be created.He is writing constantly when he `feels inspired by someone or something`.He joined the International Songwriters Association and gained valuable knowledge on the art of songwriting and made several demos using session musicians to hear his lyrics in `song form`.After a few failed writing collaborations,and after some successful `tryout songs`with his brother Mike on guitar,he decided to `go it alone`.The debut cd `From 17 To The Web Of Dreams`was born,Andy singing and composing,recording and producing all 11 original tracks.A wide variety of styles and genres,a mesh of sounds,this album was the start of something big.The dance/electronica lead track `Little Miss `M`was recently a finalist in Song of The Year for March.Making this cd was such an enjoyable experience,in 2003 the second album was released.`Give A Heart And Joy,Take A Break And Pain`featured 13 tracks,a massive progression on the debut cd.The lead track is the funky indo-asian `Sisterfriend`.Andy is currently working on a third album,which will include,in his own words,`some weird and wonderful sounds` and some joint offerings with other writers.It looks like A.S. Goodwin is here to stay,he`s created a sound of his own,appealing to fans of many different genres.Both CD cover art by Dixdesign("ur the best!").Czech models("thx with all my heart") Monica(Little Miss M)and Drew(Sisterfriend)appear on cd artwork.

I like anything and everything.Prince and Madonna are my alltime favourites.But anything with good lyrics,good beat and something to remember.

I would love to visit Prague in the Czech Republic,one day,just love that old romantic architecture.

I use the Sonic Foundry Acid 2.0 mixing desk and virtual studio,available from MH2O.com.
