Once upon a time, the ever-so-slightly younger Andy worked as a musician. Playing keyboards with a number of bands, Andy performed in the UK and Europe. Then he met Ian Cognito. Which is funny. Sorry. Who is funny.
Working with one of the stand-up circuit’s most passionate performers, Andy started his lessons in making people laugh – and in being the one they laugh at. All good to know.
Andy moved away from the keyboard and into the limelight (or, in most cases, the slightly flickery 60 watt bulb offered by your average stand up comedy club) and he was hooked.
With several Edinburgh shows under his belt, and a gig at Glastonbury to tell the grandchildren about, Andy decided it was time to get serious about being funny and began writing his own standup material. This he performed around the circuit, whilst also developing a regular spot as a compere.
Continuing to develop his stand-up routine, Andy began to take acting work whenever he was offered the chance – and frequently when he saw half a chance and grabbed it on the off chance that he would find another half a chance a bit later on and put them together. To make a whole one.
It was Andy’s standup experience that attracted the attention of playwright Brian Fillis. Brian had written Fear of Fanny for Edinburgh – subsequently adapted for BBC Four – and was casting his next piece for Edinburgh 2003.
Non-Scene was Andy’s first professional role as an Actor and he has since built an impressive portfolio of work.
Andy has worked professionally as an Actor, both on screen and on the stage. From the Edinburgh Fringe to London theatre, from award-winning short films to full length Features, from cross-media advertising to national TV, Andy continues to bring his talent, his commitment and his undeniable good nature to an exciting range of roles.
Andy’s post-graduate training was at Redroofs Theatre School.
The rest he learnt through early mornings, long days and great people.
