Andrew Cushin | York

Anthemic Geordie indie-rock sensation Andrew Cushin is live in Hull this October.

Championed by Noel Gallagher, Pete Doherty, Sam Fender and Louis Tomlinson, Andrew Cushin lived up to the hype with his debut album ‘Waiting For The Rain’, which spent three weeks at #1 on the Official Independent Album Breakers Chart while surging into the Top 10 on the Independent Albums and Record Store Charts.

He also became an increasingly big draw in the live arena, particularly in his hometown of Newcastle where he became the youngest Geordie to sell-out the City Hall with 4500 people in attendance over two nights, before subsequently headlining the big outdoor Tyne of the Mouth Festival last summer.

Just as ‘Waiting For The Rain’ introduced a bigger, bolder sound from that of his early EPs, ‘Love Is For Everyone’ again sees Andrew pushing his sound into new territory.

That expressive, all-feeling voice still dominates and brings his relatable and poignant autobiographical lyrics to life.This time, however, the music’s scale is amplified further, taking in a diverse array of influences and setting the stage for his singer-songwriter roots to crash headfirst into mainstream awareness.

The album was produced by Gareth Nuttall, who has helped The K’s and Lottery Winners rise from cult level favourites to the upper reaches of the charts.
