Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Drawing on experience of playing drums, bass, guitar and singing in bands, as well as being proficient in a number of other instruments, singer-songwriter Andy was joined by Flo in 2007, a multi instrumentalist, and they set upon writing material, recording and playing live.
2008 will be an important year as they finalise the recording to the debut album 'Providence & Fate', and hit the road to promote it.
