Twisted Roots by Andrew Browne

'Twisted Roots' is Andrew Browne's second album, the first being 'Fishing for Compliments' (2001).

A bunch of beautiful and surprising songs, that he usually sings with just acoustic guitar and voice, have been transformed into an enchanting, slightly dark set through the quiet genius of producer and musician John Stuart (Sound Heaven, Blue Mountains).

Using an unusual ensemble, including vibraphone, bass flute, violin, cello, pedal steel, percussion and Cuban trez, John has presented Andrew’s songs as a series of connected narratives, threaded together with fine performances by some of the best musicians in Sydney and the mountains.

The songs are about the usual range of things: the living, the dead and those in between, dogs in space, evil friends, vampires, junkies, alzheimers, love, hurt, change, rain and the fleeting terror that wakes tradies at dawn.

Andrew is a songwriter and carpenter from Redfern in inner Sydney and Yarramalong, 100 km north. Andrew has worked in many roles including film caterer, serial house-renovater, actor, singer, tradie, jazz tour-manager, AV technician and cook.
Every Sat he plays at LifeBoat Café at Brooklyn on the Hawkesbury River. He also plays in bars and cafes in inner Sydney.
Twisted Roots is his 2nd album.
