Andrew Cushin – Waiting For The Rain – CD

Description

Waiting For The Rain was produced by Dave Eringa (Manic Street Preachers) and recorded at Rockfield studios in Monmouth and The Libertines Albion Rooms studios in Margate. Having just completed an Arena Tour of America with Louis Tomlinson, Andrew Cushin is on the road again with Louis across Europe in August/September. Wor Flags, released last month is the fifth track (following It‚Äôs Coming Round Again, 4.5%, You‚Äôll Be Free and Dream For A Moment) to be taken from Waiting For The Rain. A new single Just Like You‚Äôd Want Me To is released August 30th. 23-year-old singer-songwriter Andrew Cushin is Newcastle‚Äôs fastest rising star. He has already recorded with Noel Gallagher and counts Paul Weller and Sam Fender among his biggest cheerleaders. Andrew grew up on a council estate in Heaton, Newcastle. His songs, delivered in a gorgeous baritone that sounds way beyond his years, are full of his experiences growing up, his lust for life, his grief at the loss of loved ones, his hopes and fears, his love and his stoicism. Andrew Cushin released his debut single It‚Äôs Gonna Get Better (2020) followed by Waiting For The Rain (2020); ‚ÄôWhere‚Äôs My Family Gone‚Äô (2021) featuring production and guitar from Noel Gallagher and in 2022, through Peter Doherty‚Äôs Strap Originals label, You Don‚Äôt Belong EP and double A Side single You‚Äôll Be Free / Dream For A Moment. Press quotes: ‚ÄúCushin recalls acoustic Noel Gallagher circa Morning Glory.‚Äù ‚Äì Sunday Times Culture // ‚ÄúThe kitchen-sink realism of his songs, raised on the concrete turfs of council estates and smoke filled social clubs of Newcastle, is something the chart-topping Toms, Jacks and Georges of guitar pop are not only desperately lacking, but entirely unaware of.‚Äù – The Line of Best Fit // ‚ÄúAndrew Cushin is a newcomer being feted by actual icons.‚Äù ‚Äì Clash // ‚ÄúHas built enough hometown momentum to suggest he could ‚Äòdo a Sam Fender‚Äô very soon.‚Äù – Music Week // ‚ÄúIt’s clear to see the future is bright for Andrew whose backing from big names as well as a loyal following sets him up nicely to take the scene by storm.‚Äù Daily Mirror // ‚ÄúTransforming his native infused-sound, Andrew Cushin releases a banger.‚Äù Wonderland // ‚ÄúA set of personal yet relatable songs that connect immediately and directly.‚Äù Louder Than War //
