'A Night For Bob Andrews' with Graham Parker & The Rumour, Nick Lowe, Jona Lewie

Join us for a night celebrating the genius of Bob Andrews - all proceeds go to Bob's family.

Born in Yorkshire, keyboardist/singer Bob Andrews joined his first professional group 'Brinsley Schwarz' in 1969. They became a staple on the UK pub and club scene recording 6 albums. They broke up in 1975.

Later that year Bob helped form The Rumour who then hooked up with singer/songwriter Graham Parker. They recorded 5 albums with Graham and 2 on their own all while touring the UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and the USA over the next 4 years. Bob had started producing in 1978 when he co-produced (with Brinsley Schwarz), the debut album of Carlene Carter.

Later Bob would produce hits for Jona Lewie, The Bluebells and The La's. Bob was also in demand as a keyboard player notably on Maxine Nightingale's 1975 hit 'Right Back Where We Started From' and recordings by Nick Lowe and Sam Brown among others. He is survived by his wife Patricia & son Riley.
