Recorded this past September in Chicago, Walk in Light is Andrew Whites most ambitious album to date. Featuring a full band comprised of the citys finest session musicians, it introduces dynamic new songs from a broad spectrum of styles. From reggae beats to blues to folk, it displays Andrews versatility as a guitarist, songwriter and arranger.





Released on Candyrat Records, this is Andrews second album with this innovative Milwaukee-based label. Traces of Silver, a solo acoustic album featuring songs and instrumentals, was recorded at the Silver Glen Resort by Candyrat founder Rob Poland in Nova Scotia and released worldwide in 2007.





\\\\\"Andrew is a great story teller. He draws you into his music with lyrics that are both meaningful and at times, deeply personal. In Walk in Light, you walk in Andrews shoes for a moment and come out on the other side better for it.\\\\\" -Rob Poland, Candyrat Records





About Andrew ...





Andrew started his career busking on the streets of Auckland, New Zealand, but soon began his meteoric rise. In 1984, he released his first album, Conversations, and was immediately signed by the new-age label Narada Records in the US. Narada then released Islands, an instrumental collaboration with Grammy-nominated artist David Arkenstone, which reached the top 30 on the US Billboard Charts.


Following a live broadcast on BBC Radio Scotland, he was signed by UK label Linn Records and recorded Guitarra Celtica, a stunning instrumental album featuring 16 hauntingly beautiful original tracks. This was quickly followed with Pray For Rain, Andrews first vocal album released on the independent Scottish label Vertical Records.


In January of 2005, he released Andrew White - Live, recorded by CBC Radio Canada, broadcast to over 2-million people, and was nominated for a Canadian East Coast Music Award.


Worldwide, over 1-million albums - including Andrews own compositions - have been sold. Andrews finger-style guitar work is technically brilliant yet possesses a highly melodic structure. He is one of the few who combines international class guitar playing with skilfully crafted and beautiful songs. A humble and gifted musician, Andrews music will take you on a spiritual journey over the mountains of his soul and rivers through it.
