"Sometimes I like to lose myself whilst playing music, a lot of different stuff comes out. I first learnt the guitar playing along to Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells and my first instrument was made from a cereal box, a kitchen roll tube and some elastic bands".

There are no discernable lyrics here, instead an array of instruments seem to speak a language native to the unseen, deep, murky and mysterious wilds of Norfolk but a Norfolk populated by African drums and South-American ukeleles and its landscape of bouzoukis, old organs, trumpets and assorted percussion creates something of a psych-folk symphony.
Although a prolific musician in his own right Andrew has also collaborated with many other artists. One such project was Nick Worrall's musicollage experiment The Fortress Project on which he contrbuted penny whistles, banjo, mellotron and amongst other things some charango.
Steve Cobby (Fila Brazillia) and Porky (Pork Recordings) are 'The Cutler', Andrew provides vocals on 'Pyramid of Power' from their 'Black Flag EP', available from i-tunes.
