How refreshing it is to hear real music.

The kind that draws you in, shakes your hand and whispers, \"forget about the politics, lets play music! \"The kind of music that this industry has been starved of for so long and exactly the kind of music that lives through singer/songwriter: Andrew Swift.

With touring and recording commitments hampering five years of personal song writing, Andrew finally decided to part ways with his long time friends ‘Race The Fray’, before jumping to the stage to capture both our hearts and minds. And that he did! With his powerful collaborations of taut, acoustic grooves and dense, melodic hooks, it would have only been fair to top it all off with the rounded hum of an acoustic guitar.

Not surprisingly, it didn’t take long for his local acoustic set to gain wider recognition and in his first year of going solo, Andrew found himself supporting classic Australian artists such as The Black Sorrows, Mental As Anything, James Reyne, Peter Combe and Dragon.

Fans began to steadily relish in his astounding live performances, holding acclaim to such a powerful voice that often echoes through an entire venue unscathed. However, unsatisfied with this, and continually eager to challenge himself musically, he enlisted the talents of four more musicians (now known as The \"Shipwrecks\") to strengthen his already rock-solid set.

Andrew recorded his latest CD in El Paso Texas and it is set to release his CD early 2011.
