Andy Cowan Quartet

A fixture on the Australian music scene for more than half a century, Andy’s style massages the soul-blues-R and B idiom in an acoustic jazz format. Blues has always been at the core of his work, but it is the emotional quality of his earthy voice, soulful piano-playing and the diversity he displays as a songwriter and interpreter that have helped make him one of the best live performers in Australia. Andy was awarded Blues Album of the Year for his album “One of These Days. He was an ARIA nominee for his “10.30 Thursdays” CD and represented the MBAS at the International Blues Convention in Memphis, Tennessee in 2002. He has recorded nine studio albums and a live DVD “A Tale Of Two Cities”.

He has arranged and performed on movie soundtracks, including the Australian cult classic Stone and has toured internationally and across Australia for nearly five decades. In the ‘70s and ‘80s Andy was a hired gun for legendary Australian bands, Madder Lake, Ayers Rock, Kevin Borich, Ian Moss and Renee Geyer.

He is now living in the Noosa Hinterland and performing with long time friends Ric Halstead on saxophones, Christian Dunham - electric and acoustic bass and Duncan MacQueen - drums.
