Words: Leah Raymond
Making his debut with a strummed acoustic guitar and quietly affecting voice, 20 year old Geordie newcomer Andrew Cushin arrives with his debut, ‘It’s Gonna Get Better’.
The release comes as part of the two-track ‘Waiting For The Rain’ EP. Both songs were written by Andrew and produced by Sean Genocky. And it probably is going to get a lot better if he has more in his bag of songs like this, which lyrically is an unguarded outpouring of emotion, rich with regret, romance and yearning.
The ex-goalkeeper for non-league side Newcastle Benfield’s youth team may now have hung up his footie boots, but it can only be music's gain.
Check ‘It’s Gonna Get Better’ - and then see where you can catch Andrew live over the next months.
