Influences
Musically - Ben Folds, Counting Crows, Crowded House, 100 Portraits, Sons of Korah, Playjerise, Paul Colman, Motorace, Lisa Loeb, Bruce Springsteen and so many more ...
Lyrically - My Saviour Jesus who has freed us, my God whose creation astounds me on a daily basis and the Holy Spirit whose work I constantly underestimate in the lives of those around me. Oh ... and Keith Green.
Personally - My amazing wife who has been living with a husband who does not really have boundaries where it comes to songwriting (am or pm).
Sounds Like
A guy playing guitar, singing and adding things over the top once the guitar and singing are done. Simple, unproduced ’heart on your sleeve’ stuff ...
Andrew Kitchen is a song-writer; it is his heart, his waking thought, his heart beat. Through years of writing and performing with Antiskeptic, he has honed a sound and style that is recognizable, original and honest. Recently, Andrew has focused on applying his writing to worship music; which has seen him produce his most intimate and unguarded work yet. He produces music that sounds like a person not only exploring new music ideas, but also new areas of his faith. With a heart full of faith, lyrics in mind and a guitar in hand, Andrew has a new sound that can best be described as melodic acoustic gospel rock.
This is a video about the Micah Challenge "Heart, Life, Voice" worship album that is coming out really soon. For more information still - and to hear a sneak preview of my song, please visit : www.heartlifevoice.org
