Metal Shoe

A song which compares life to a game of monopoly - i.e. life is a game, you need money to survive, but in the end it doesn't really bring you happiness.
Andy Whittle is a 23 year old singer-songwriter from Nottingham, UK. Although inspired by great songwriters such as Dylan and Paul Simon, Andy's style retains a unique sound, with each song sounding different from the last. His music reveals sensitivity and observation beyond his years, with poetic lyrics inspiring strong emotions. Andy's major strength lies in his live performances, which demonstrate an honesty and charisma that is truly mesmerising - RC
Band/artist history
I have been doing music stuff for about six years now. I have been in various covers bands - 'Catch 22' being the best one. After this band split I started a band called glasshour, playing origional music written by me, the guitarist (Ross Huffen) and the bassist (Bead Dawson) I decided to go solo as well as be in a band, and so the Andy Whittle project is the result. I have recorded my first album, doing some in a studio and some at home, and am pleased with the result. The album is produced by Bead Dawson who plays and sings backing on it too. She has done a great job and I'm looking forward to the future.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We have started playing at Synergy Bar in Nottingham as part of a residency, its every friday night starting on 4th feb. I am involved with my freinds 'Mokey'(an up and coming acoustic band) in a company called brass button promotions, we are trying to expand the music scene to cater for soloists and acoustic type bands.
Your musical influences
I'm into stuff like Dylan, Neil young, Richard Thompson, Simon and Garfunkel, Tom Mcrae, Jesse Malin, Rayn Adams and much more
What equipment do you use?
Standard solid top acoustic guitar, 12 string acoustic guitar, hammond type organ, brush drums and acoustic bass, plus a danelectro distortion pedal and a few other chorus effects. I also have a nice electric piano which gets out sometimes.
Anything else?
