Andrew Winton

Andrew Winton makes a welcome return, conjuring up everything from sophisticated blues groans to intricate celtic-influenced melodies on his 13 stringed, double neck, Alabama cypress tree root lap-slide beast (The Lucky 13).

His humour, musicianship, eclectic influences and styles, suburban song-stories, vocal shenanigans and award-winning songs have all contributed to Andrew gaining fans locally and internationally over the years. Clearly his mix of originals and bluesified unexpected covers appeals to a wide audience.

Andrew is excited to be releasing his new album, Glorybox Mechanics, his first since the highly successful and award winning, Happy (2012). Andrew continues to explore a range of uniquely designed lap slide and acoustic instruments, making for a captivating and entertaining live performance. Andrew was named Australian Songwriter of the Year 2012 by the Australian Songwriters Association in conjunction with APRA.
