Andrea Goodman - No Man's Land (2019)

The development of Andrea's unique style is the result of a lifetime of musical influence. Growing up in the Bluegrass state meant that Andrea was always surrounded by different forms of music. With Kentucky being the birthplace of Bluegrass and Nashville nearby, her parents exposed her to a wealth of music as a child, all of which influenced her development.
Her first foray into learning an instrument himself came when she started to play the guitar in her twenties. This was directly after picking up several acoustic gigs with duo partners in Bowling Green, KY, just an hour north of Nashville. Before long, she began writing her own lyrics and soon was accompanying them with melodies.
After realizing that making music was her main goal in 2014, she made her move to Music City and began to showcase her talent in various venues across Nashville. Along the way Andrea played shows opening for Blackhawk and Darryl Worley. She also played full band and acoustic shows across Tennessee, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, New York, and Florida. By 2017 Andrea was quickly getting booked steadily in the southern Kentucky region. Andrea is noted for the unique style that she brings to the traditional Country scene.
As her confidence grew and her style developed, she soon saw a loyal following begin to grow and she became a popular local hit in the southern Kentucky/Nashville music scene. Her vocal talents, along with patience to play most cover songs requested by her audiences, and her unique country sound with a twist started to find an appreciative audience.
She is keen to point out that everything she listens to directs her musical development in some way. However, she would certainly include Miranda Lambert, Loretta Lynn, Kacey Musgraves, Brandy Clark, Justin Moore, and Tyler Childers as among her biggest influences.
Finally, after honing her unique sound over recent years, she has now released her debut album, ‘No Man’s Land’, which showcase the changes that Andrea has gone through over recent years. The biggest of these was the move into the unknown she experienced when she moved to Nashville knowing only five people.
The songs provide a combination of her uncanny talent for story-telling, along with a liberating honkytonk feel. Her album ranges from sounds filled with twang to a more rocking feel; something akin to Loretta Lynn vocals fused and the production of a Fleetwood Mac album with a steel guitar.
Andrea’s touring schedule is increasing relentlessly, and she is finding herself more in demand than ever in venues across the country. It seems that the nation is building an appreciation for her sound and talent, and her loyal army of fans spread far and wide across the globe and are waiting eagerly for their first chance to listen to the completed album.
