Meet Andy Hanson

Andy Hanson is a singer/songwriter from Eau Claire, WI, who blends the elements of folk, Americana, and country into what he calls, “real songs for a reeling world.” After spend more then a decade of writing, Hanson determined that the best songs are the real songs. The songs celebrating life’s highs and lows, the good and bad, the heavy and light, the fragile and the bombastic.

For artistic inspiration, Andy draws from a diverse range of influences, blending the timeless artistry of folk legends from the 1960s with the fresh perspectives of contemporary songwriters. His sound evokes the spirit of Bob Dylan, intertwined with the emotive storytelling of artists like Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors, John Moreland, and Jeffrey Martin.

To date, Andy Hanson has released one full-length original album titled, Roots, and one full-length cover album entitled, Andy Hanson Sings Wyblue. The album, Roots reflects the imagery of tree roots—whatever is poured onto them, whether poison or water, influences how the tree grows, thrives, or withers. He sees this as a simple yet powerful metaphor that resonates with the human experience. Andy Hanson Sings Wyblue, is an ode to the songs written for the band Wyblue, which he used to front. The songs were so special, he didn’t want to leave them behind.
