When a 21-year-old songwriter is heralded as a major new talent by two icons of British music, it’s time to take note. Noel Gallagher has not only championed the young Geordie, but he also produced and played guitar on his track‘Where’s My Family Gone’. Pete Doherty is similarly enamoured by Andrew’s flair for creating big anthems from songs which explore hefty social issues; first signing Andrew to his Strap Originals label and then taking him on tour with The Libertines.
Andrew Cushin’s songs are full of astute observations and honest meditations about life’s day-to-day tribulations. But despite the weight of the subject matter, his music possesses a tangible sense of hope too. He’s the product of his upbringing Newcastle, and fittingly the city is embracing him as one of their own. His hometown headline shows all rapidly sell-out, including gigs at The Boiler Shop and The Cluny as well as a benefit night for the mental health charity Mind.
Brilliant night at City Hall. Atmosphere was electric especially when NUFC won at SJP And Andrew being a Geordie playing in his hometown made it extra special for the audience. From the beginning of concert the audience sang along. Look forward to his next concert. Excellent performance
Andrew as always was on top form belting out some great tunes with beautiful vocals and fantastic musicianship with great stage presence, the lad really has got it all, well done Andrew 👏👏👏
Atmosphere and performance was incredible as it always is at his shows
Talented song writing, good set list from x2 albums, puts on a show, entertaining gig. Seen him a few times. Captures the crowd.
Brilliant little venue. Andrew on proper top form. Excellent from start to finish
