biographical info

Bittersweet harmonies and softly strung instrumentation blankets Andrew Coombes' songwriting like the nostalgic return to some long forgotten site of youthful memories. Andrew Coombes creates earnest music with wonderfully infectious melodies that linger with you long after you hear them. Some tunes make your toes tap while others have the ability to create space for sincere contemplation. The solid songwriting shines with the kind of honest emotion one can only convey by experiencing life with an open mind and a loving heart.

 

Andrew has been performing beautiful music for years, both as a solo musician as well as a part of various collaborations. The most recent collection of musicians and friends that have come together to form Noise and the Ghost add fervour to Andrew's musical vision. Together, they released a self-titled EP (2009) and full length “We Were Born In A Fire” (2011). Andrew is now putting that same energy into his solo performance, releasing a new song on the 1st of every month in anticipation of the release of his first full length effort in 2012

Andrew Coombes seems poised to step into a place in music lovers' minds that stands somewhere between Great Lake Swimmers and Elliot Smith.
