    Andy is a London-based, Irish singer-songwriter who was previously a hospital doctor but whose proudest moment as an Irishman was captaining England’s Barmy Army during the Ashes in Australia. He spends much of his time with his wife Jenny working out how to be downwardly mobile in the centre of London. Drowning in the Shallow was described as a ‘near-perfect album’ by Cross Rhythms magazine, but he is still disappointingly imperfect. He is also the Director of Christians on the Left. A key driving passion of Andy’s is to see a just re-wiring of the global economic system.
