He has mainly worked in actor-musician and open-air theatre, having been composer and musical director for many Shakespeare and family shows for Folksy Theatre. He has also created the Sound Design for the Northcott Theatre and PaddleBoat Theatre's production of the much-loved children's book The Jolly Christmas Postman. He created a mix of electronic, '80s-inspired and acoustic underscoring for RedBellyBlack's production of OK, Bye​ and Scratchworks Theatre's Hags: A Magical Extravaganza.  Working across many genres for various companies since 2017 Andrew has a wealth of experience in composition, lyricism, musical collaboration and creating exciting, dynamic and fun music. 

Recently Andrew has worked with The Exeter Northcott Theatre and Alibi Theatre's FailSpace project as 'the artist in the corner', live-composing musical reactions to the conversations about failure and art. He also sang on Sam Lee's BBC Folk Award-winning song Lovely Molly.
