"Iowa-based songwriter Andre Vander Velde's smooth voice and deft touch on the acoustic guitar fill his self-titled album, which features seven tracks, mixed and recorded with Jeremy Garrett at Hidden Tracks Recording Studio.
The songs flow from one to the next perfectly, telling stories of love, family, compassion, unity and peace, with some wisdom from the ups and downs of life mixed in for good measure. Andre's work on the guitar complements his vocals to offer a soothing, contemplative listening experience.
Brady Bock, owner of Harney Street Tavern, said his “warm sound and positive energy surrounds everyone in the room”.
And it’s true — his warm, intimate sound takes you from wherever you're listening - the gym, on a walk, at the office or in the car - and puts you right there in the room with Andre for a one-person concert."
