   About Andra Moran
The Official Stuff She didn’t think it would be this complicated. When Andra Moran moved to Nashville on the Fourth of July several years ago, she timed her drive into town to correspond with the firework celebration. As she drove south on highway 65, she came over the hill into Nashville to find a thunderstorm. Not that it’s all been rain clouds and grey skies, of course. Andra studied music formally at Belmont University, and informally at the bars and clubs where songwriters met to swap songs and stories, and used their tip money to buy a drink or two. The friends she made in songwriter rounds helped Andra to develop further as a writer and an artist, and to try to narrow the focus of her music. Unfortunately, she’s still trying to figure out the focus, and that’s the complicated part. The daughter of two ministers, Andra’s faith plays a central role in her writing, and so do Andra’s range of experiences living all over the world as part of an Army chaplain’s family. Andra’s songs reflect a freshness and an honesty about the complex nature of living in a wide and wild world. Her conversational approach to lyrics and her accessible, memorable melodies have won many loyal and vocal fans: "The best part about being on the road is hearing the crowd sing along. Realizing that strangers have internalized words that are so intimately me is a very powerful thing." Singing and writing are undeniable for Andra. She owns each moment of each song in a way that can't help but capture your ear and your heart. Currently, Andra is touring nationally in support of her upcoming Insta-Rock Records release, "In Small Things" which was written and recorded in all sorts of unlikely venues. "In Small Things" includes the work of some of Nashville's most accomplished musicians. "In Small Things" was mixed by Grammy winning engineer David Leonard, which makes this record extra-special for Andra, who has loved David Leonard's work since junior highschool . "In Small Things" is the follow-up to Andra’s three previous releases: 2005's critically acclaimed studio release "Listening," 2003’s acoustic EP, “The Someday Sessions” and 2001’s “If Not for This,” with Josh Elson, produced by Dexter Green. In addition to her recordings, Andra’s songs have also been published in a collection of print music entitled Chalice Praise through the Christian Board of Publication, and are sung in churches, summer camps and dorm rooms across the country.
