New Solo CD From Andrew Collins

posted by Brance on 12.06.05 @ 6:17 am

Andrew Collins has a new solo CD out, Little Widgets.

I went to school with Andrew at South Plains College in Levelland, TX. He is now considered one of the premier mandolinists in Canada. Andrew lives in Toronto where he plays with two bands. The Creaking Tree Quintet is a progressive string quintet with influces spanning from bluegrass to classical and beyond, and the Foggy Hogtown Boys is a traditional bluegrass band.
