Andrew Combs announces January/February European tour

Driven by lyrical content, nostalgia and the desire to cover some of his favourite songs, Andrew Combs started recording 5 Covers and A Song with the intention of show-casing one of his favourite artists, Loudon Wainwright III. Also included is covers of The Strokes, Radiohead, Blake Mills, Lucinda Williams and one his own songs. 5 Covers and A Song is a snapshot of the influences that helped shape Andrew Combs as a songwriter as well as a display of how he has honed his craft.

The three full albums released by Nashville singer-songwriter Andrew Combs so far read like his personal journal. The youngest chapter, Worried Man, is stripped down and vulnerable, leaden with introspection and poetic pleading. All These Dreams was a slow shift outside his own heartache, introducing variations in tone and pop sensibility.

His latest, Canyons Of My Mind, continues this maturation with the introduction of existential ruminations, more ominous orchestral moments and the slightest taming of his twang in exchange for a higher register. Regardless of the narratives or the instrumental backdrop, Combs evolves subtly, with a grace that demonstrates his personal awareness and a musical sphere that offers variation without sacrificing his base.
