Pandrés is an award nominated singer/Songwriter from Allentown, Pennsylvania. The acoustic guitar is his weapon of choice, and he uses it to the fullest extent he can. since performing live music is his full time job, He takes pride in his live performances. it is his goal to put on the best and most impressive show that he can. Using an ever growing collection of equipment like a loop pedal, a wah pedal, a slide, and more; Pandrés uses these to make his performance more than just getting through a three minute song. With powerful vocals, as well as energetic and fast acoustic guitar solos, Pandrés makes sure when he is by himself he can grab the audience's attention just as much as a full band could.
Andrew makes every single performance different than the last by heavily Using improvisation for guitar solos and for singing. Sometimes even performing complete improvised songs off the top of his head. Andrew continues to make sure no two shows are the same With a diverse catalog of original and cover songs; playing different songs than the one he did at his last performance and last performance at the same place. Andrew also brings his own interpretation to many covers songs he performs by adding improvised jams to them, improvising new lyrics that pertain to the night, adding medleys to them, or adding an interpolations of a different song.
Pandrés has been influenced by Dave Matthews Band, Billy Joel, Colin Hay (Men At Work, Phil Collins (Genesis), Coldplay, John Mayer, Ed Sheeran, Phillip Phillips, Frank Sinatra, AC/DC, and a continuing number of different types of music. To Pandrés music is the most important part of a song. Complex, thought out, beautiful instrumentation that evokes an emotional response is the type of music Pandrés hopes to make. Pandrés writes music that comes straight from his heart. Writing the music before he even knows what the lyrics will be, he composes the piece by thinking about the topic of the song or how he is feeling, and then he transfers those feelings into a guitar piece.
Pandrés writes songs to say things he can't say to people, to let certain people know how much he values them, and to vent frustrations he has about the world. Writing music was something he never set out to do when he began to learn the guitar, but it is something that has become a part of him. He hopes that his music can speak to as many people as possible. To give people hope, relief, and a sense that they aren't alone and someone else feels what they feel; like his favorite musicians have done for him.
