With his mix of jazz, acoustic, and pop, Andrew Sturtz can be heard expressing his one-of-a-kind style all over Michigan. Andrew has played venues such as Short’s Brewery, Horizon Books, The Opera House, Traverse City State Theater, and The Strutt, also opening for many artists and even movies at the nationally known Traverse City Film Festival. Andrew has received immense praise for his soothing vocals and powerful stage presence, both of which he brings to every performance. Joining him as of recent is the very talented Alex Gusler. Playing in such groups as The Saving Sara Project and other local ensembles, Alex has impressed many with his complex drumming style and strong technical ability. Having been together for over a year, Andrew and Alex continue to perform their music to crowds either small or prodigious for the enjoyment of all. Yet to release any collaborative material, the two are working on a new album to hopefully be released sometime in 2010.
"Andrew Sturtz is one of our top artists at Short's. His songwriting,
singing and guitar playing are brilliantly mature. He is intelligent,
communicative, respectful, and otherwise professional in his dealings.
We are always eager to put Andrew on our stage whenever he is
available." - Dave Schwartz, Booking Manager for Short's Brewing Co.,
Bellaire, MI
Wow! What a voice! It's such a shame you didn't get to play last night. It was nice to meet you, though, and we should definitely plan to do some shows together.
So... there was this one time where I tried to talk to this in kid on facebook because his status said he was sad, so I clicked the chat button and typed out "cheer up buttercup!" and let him know that I truly enjoyed his new cover... then he logged off. The end.
