Andrew Kerr sings stories. Whether he is singing about his childhood dreams of becoming a rap star or about teaching Coal Miners in Kentucky how to plan for retirement, he delivers his unique brand of 'truth is stranger (and often funnier) than fiction' tales with catchy melodies and a hearty dose of sarcasm and wit. Andrew started his performing career ten years ago as a stand-up comic, and from the moment he steps on stage, this is apparent. His live shows are high-energy and interactive, and have been described as a folk-rock-comedy blend. Born and raised in New York City, Andrew grew up with a mixed bag of musical influences that ranged from James Taylor and Harry Chapin to the Sugar Hill Gang and Public Enemy. As a result, his music is a unique blend of introspective folk-influenced songwriting, sarcastic stand-up comedy, and rock and rap-influenced music and grooves. "It's rare to see someone connect with an audience as well as Andrew Kerr does. This guy was born to be on stage." - Matt Smith, Club Passim "If you ever stop writing songs I will kill you." - Christopher Smith, Former Music Editor, Performing Songwriter Magazine "What a great album! Me and Buddha rocks. Congratulations!" - Russ Jennings, Festival Promoter and KPFA Radio DJ "Think Van Morrison. Think Will Smith. Think blithe comedy and moody poetry." - Santa Barbara News-Press
