Andi Neate is a singer/songwriter of exceptional talent, with a powerful voice, a gift for melody and a memorably quirky turn of phrase. She is a compelling live performer, who has been compared with Suzanne Vega, Ani Difranco and Tori Amos.
Andi does not easily fit into established categories, but draws on a wide range of influences, from folk to rock to jazz.
She has recorded with the Bhundu Boys and Ireland’s chart topping Mickey Harte and supported Rab Noakes, John Renbourne, Grammy nominee Eliza Gilkyson, Wolfstone and Horse MacDonald and shared a stage with KT Tunstall. She appears regularly at UK festivals, including Glastonbury, Cambridge Fringe Festival, Wickerman, Solfest and The Famous Spiegeltent. Her music has taken her as far afield as Canada, Sicily, Prague and the Falkland Islands.
A woman of many talents and formidable determination, Andi once spent 3 years building her own house completely from scratch. And she can rustle up a paper frog or a dolphin in seconds!
Andi can be booked as a solo artist (with acoustic guitar) or as the Andi Neate Band (inc keyboards, dbl bass, backing vox).
