ENTERTAINER:
First and foremost Andy Dunne is an Entertainer. His versatility and musical ability demand this.“ I love to write songs but there are so many great songs out there from other people that I just think it’s impossible for me not to cover those as well”.
So many years of keeping up with the “flavor of the month” songs has given Andy the edge over most other entertainers on the scene, especially when he has managed to do this with just vocals and an acoustic guitar. He has developed a style of Guitar playing that (although detrimental to any kind of guitar string!) is powerful, full and rhythmic yet when required it can also be tender and touching. The same can be said for his vocals. It seems impossible that the rough and almost angry voice that is singing "Psycho Killer" could be coming from the same person who you've just heard pouring his heart out singing Ron Sexsmith's "Gold in them hills".
Though never an easy task, it’s becoming harder and harder for Andy to slip into any one genre as he continues to perform possibly the most eclectic set of songs you will hear from a solo Entertainer.
Known also for his ability to create audience interaction on even the quietest of nights, Andy’s natural onstage wit and banter add another dimension to what is already a great night's entertainment. .
In 2008 Andy guested on Mick Flannery's Debut CD, "Evening Train"providing vocals and harmonica on "Take It On The Chin".
SONGWRITER:
When it comes to songwriting, Andy has always written from the heart. Seldom delving into subjects such as politics or social philosophies Andy’s songs are more focused on matters of the heart and personal experience.” For me songwriting has always been like keeping a diary. It is also a very therapeutic way of self expression” Being influenced by such a vast range of songwriters and genres has given Andy’s songs depth and diversity.
Andy's newest CD "Living Proof" contains four self-penned songs which have been chosen from a collection of songs he wrote during and after his time on Dialysis. The CD also has a cover version of Ron Sexsmith's "Gold in them hills".
