Hi,
I'm Andrew Dunmore, and I'm a 21 year-old musician from Leicester, England. I have been playing the piano/keyboard for eleven years, and also have some experience on guitar, mandolin and harmonica.
In 2007 I started to perform live solos and duets, which would normally last for around 30 minutes. I was also part of the rock & soul covers band 'Jack-L' playing keyboards, from December 2007 to January 2009, when we split up. I played 23 gigs with them in 2008.
I also write a lot of my own songs, which is primarily what I play when I do solo performances. I recently recorded my first album 'Road To Freedom' which has been available to listen to and download since January 2009. There are twelve songs on the album, all written by myself except one that I co-wrote and performed with Louise Steel. So far four of these songs: 'Lonesome Renegade', 'Braver Than You Think', 'No Looking Back This Time' and 'Drunken Chickens', have received airplay on a local radio station, 103FM The Eye.
I'm currently at De Montfort University, Leicester, studying Creative Writing & Journalism. I'm in my last year of a three year course. It's going fine at the minute, nothing too complicated.
Feel free to listen to the songs on my profile and comment if you wish. I appreciate any form of feedback. :)
Hi Andrew, Yes of course I remember you! You were the first person to buy my album through my site. Long time ago now and the album has sold over 400 so I'm well pleased. Join up with CD Baby - they're excellent; gives you a world wide market. I'd love to listen to your track but can't seem to get the player to play. will keep trying - alternatively, post it to me on a CD to Mixon Green Farm, Onecote, Nr Leek, Staffs. ST13 7RX Keep up the good work - you've been busy going by your site. I've joined up with a slide player and bass player who also plays harmonium and we play a lot of local pubs etc. Good country/americana sound.Have also go 7 tracks down for the next album. Take care Rick

Happy New Year! Cheers for your friendship in 2008. All the best for 09. As always, let me know if I can help you out with any leaflets, flyers or posters to promote your gigs. If you place an order, just mention that you're one of my Myspace friends and I'll knock 15 quid off the cost. Hope I can help you out sometime. Take care, Tom.

Hi Andy, well done with the new recordings, they sound fab. And thanks for the message about my xmas song. It was only a silly thing I did in 20 mins. Lol. And when are you gonna get on MSN, mister?
I haven't written any new lyrics for Please Sir I Want Some More because I'm considering that it's finished - especially with that guitar solo included. I need to record some new vocals on the version we worked on together, so as soon as I can get that done, I'll upload it. Glad you like the new song. I think I have enough songs to do some open mic gigs now. :)
