About Me |
|
| Andy Gorwell is an Australian based singer-songwriter and musician who has been playing sporadically in ever changing incarnations in and around Melbourne over the last 8 or so years. From the smoke filled bars of St Kilda's Esplanade Hotel to the quaint environs of Fitzroy’s Empress Hotel he continues to make and play music capricious in nature but never transgressing his beloved and hard sell roots genre. Incorporating blues, country rock and folk and drawing on influences from the sixties and seventies country blues era his songs tell tales of longing, heartache and disappointment to, joy, love, and self-complacency.
Beginning as a solo artist and playing for many years around the local traps he quickly forged frienships and began jamming with many local Melbourne singer songwriters and musicians who shared the same passion for the obscure. He has played and shared the stage with many artists as diverse as the relatively unknown singer songwriters to some of the heavyweights of the industry.
His recordings have garnered airplay across the country and overseas on community radio and received favourable reviews in the street press and music magazines alike.
Undeterred by the fickle nature of the music business Gorwell remains resilient and as passionate as ever continuing to write, record and perform. His latest album 'City Walls', the first in almost 6 years, marks a new chapter in Andy's musical journey which sees him push boundaries and broaden musical horizons. Helped out by some of Melbourne's finest musicians Andy has put together a finely crafted and musically diverse second offering that should no doubt find an appreciative audience and please even the staunchest of critics. |
