When She Smiles When She Smiles
An old school love song about the wonderful woman in my life!


Beautiful Noise Beautiful Noise
A song about how God's people should be salt and light to the world and make a beautiful noise in praising God so that people notice!

Welcome Home Child Welcome Home Child
This song is a universal Welcome Home song...but was inspired by my friend Janet Linden's recovery from cancer. This song is actually a companion song to "Janet's Song". More in the "Story behind the song" section...Hope you enjoy it!

Back to You Back to You
A song about our constant need to turn from our sin and reconnect with God. ThanX to Janet Linden for the awesome duet part...Janet you ROCK! ;)

I just like good music performed by people who love what they are doing. Artistry still counts, no matter how much technology is involved, the song has to shine through. I don't hem myself in with a particular style. I try to write what I hear...turns out I hear mostly guitar based pop-rock...;) ...but that's OK. One of the best complements I've recieved from listeners is that all my songs are pretty distinct.

All kinds of stuff. SONAR, UAD, Charvel, Takamine and Yamaha guitars. Washburn, Line6 and OLP basses. Focusrite and Studio Projects mic pres. Alesis and Frontier Design converters. Lynx Audio cards.

Andy, This kind of has an Aboriginese sound to it and is very different for you, but the vocals brings this together more than does the instrumentation. I do like the lyrics and the singing in this one the best. Nice song.
Peace and Blessings, John
Wow Andy, this is sounding pretty good, like the vibe this is giving me and the vocals are just absolutely awesome. I just recently posted some new instrumentals on my music page, check them out. Back to your song, this is just simply great. Love this. What a blessing you are for the Lords voice to all who will listen.
Peace and Blessings, John
As usual I have always enjoyed your songs and their sound and most of all their wonderful messages, and this one is no exception. Just a beautiful song. Praise God through Christ Jesus for your gift.
Peace and Blessings, John
Very nice one here Andy. As usual you are giving praise where praise belongs. This is very good and done with heart and soul. I have several new songs on my soundclick music page, so stop by and check them out. Hope all is well. Peace and blessings, John
Andy, I'm getting reminiscent! Listened to Choir of Heaven and Back to You today. Don't you have a song called As Small As? Did you record it? It was in my head today, too. Bless you and the fam,
Nancy
