Andy Lindquist - Sunny Conundrums (2023)

Since the age of 13, he has been making and performing music. It all began with his first band, "Stone Soup" in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Since that humble beginning, he has written and produced thousands of songs (no, really).
The Roots

He was born and raised in Grand Forks, North Dakota, to a lower-middle class American family. His father was a WWII Navy Hero and Pearl Harbor survivor. His mother raised 7 children in their tiny little yellow house at 216 Polk Street. At age 9, he started his musical life playing the trumpet - mostly due to his love for Louis Armstrong and Herb Albert. When he purchased his first guitar at 13, he knew this was what he would do his entire life.

Andy moved to Minneapolis in 1983. He played with many bands in the Twin Cities from "Night Train" to "Fat City" to "Big Logic". In 2000, Andy moved to Seattle to take a position as one of "Heart's" guitar players. Andy played with many Seattle acts in his 2 years of residency in the Emerald city. After being hired by Heart, Andy suffered another devastating stroke.
