Andy Harris has been writing songs & singing songs in nightclubs and venues all over the USA Since 1974… Andy is a Midwest American songwriter and on-stage performist that recently moved to Southern California and has worked with many bands including: Tryax, The Ray Coble Band, Sagebrush, The Blue Collar Band, The Pena Brothers, Snafu, Flashback & DP31 in California. Andy has also had the pleasure of sharing the stage with such greats as: Dokken, Great White, Pat Travers, REO Speedwagon, The Allman Brothers, Black Oak Arkansas and Buddy Guy to name just a few. Highly influenced by Ronnie VanZant (of Skynyrd), one night while backstage at a Skynyrd concert in Davenport Iowa Andy had the pleasure of meeting Ronnie Van Zant and Allen Collins! "Ronnie and Allen Collins were nice enough to give up one of their beers and hang out after the show at the RKO Theatre. That was an inspiration, meeting his heroes. " Andy then went on to start his own
recording studio "MM Recording Studios" in Moline Illinois where he has been busy producing
and recording local & regional acts in Illinois & in California as well as releasing several of his CDs to College Radio Stations, getting airplay throughout the Midwest & the Southwest.
When Andy sings at his "live" Skynyrd Tribute Shows, the true spirit of Vanzant (The musical Mark Twain) is present, bringing fans back to a time when Ronnie Vanzant was the leader and inspiration of the band from Jacksonville! But Andy has his own music too. His own voice! And you can check some of his music on this site. Or you can check out his band "NUTHIN' FANCY" at www.thenuthinfancyband.com
