Andrea’s been playing music for a long time, from rock and roll bar bands to jazz quartets and big bands. She wrote some songs that attracted some great players and producers and has since shared the stage and studio with many of them. She studied the art of songwriting with Shari Ulrich, Mae Moore and Ron Hynes and has independently produced three albums of original material. Her songwriting is a soulful blend of southern fried blues, jazz and country rock.
