|  | Andy Whittle Originally trained in classical music, a career as a concert pianist beckoned, until his piano teacher forbade him from playing his own compositions. Not surprisingly perhaps, he chose a different path. His second album A Songmaker's Tale, released this year shows Andy further developing his song writing and a maturity in his approach to arranging and producing. He is a crafter of modern folk songs, poetic lyrics with memorable melodies and whilst he's been inspired by great songwriters, his style is quite unique revealing a sensitivity beyond his years. An extremely personable, hard-working young man, keen to raise his profile further nationally; he's made two lovely albums with broad cross-generation and cross-genre appeal and will, I'm sure, be part of the UK's musical landscape for many years to come. www.andywhittle.com & www.myspace.com/andywhittle | |
