Andy Hobson
Debut Album Sampler (Demos)
Bio
This is a long and compelling story with many twists and turns. But I shall keep it short because nobody has the attention span to read anymore. In my 20s I was the drummer in a band signed to Parlophone. That ended as these things do but I’ve continued to make music ever since. During Covid lockdown 2019 I unexpectedly started writing songs. I’d never written a song before but suddenly they came very naturally. I went with this new found creativity and began recording demos at home. These demos are now forming into album that I intend to finish and release in 2022. The songs speak of life, death and love. So everything really. I hope they lift your spirits during these strange times we’re in.
I’m in my early 40s and have kids now. They’re the best! At this stage I’m just enjoying my new found love of singing and songwriting. I’ll be playing some London shows along the way too. Then I’m going to see what happens. Life is for living to the full and I’ve had enough surprises to know that anything can happen (see below). So I’m following my heart and this burst of creativity that I have found in making music.
I’m on the hunt for musicians to play some shows with so please get in touch if you’re in London (I’m SE London) and play either bass or acoustic guitar. If you have BV skills that’s even better. Although this is currently a casual project, I’m looking for a real players and not beginners. It’s a big ask at this level, I know. But I’ve been doing this for 20 years and know that it never works out in the end of you settle for less than you need for your music. Lastly, please don’t get in touch if you read my facts bit and are expecting a quick win. We’re starting from scratch here.
For a quick listen here’s a Spotify Playlist. (These are polished demos but will take another form for my album)
