Folk and Blues show by Andy Kimbel

"His always expressive guitar playing that ranged from frolicking and exuberant to driving and soulful. Whether picking, plucking, or using a skillful slide, Kimbel brings to the stage vision of the roots of American Music that conjures up everything from rambling railroad trains to dark and lonely nights of solitary traveling"...

Andy Kimbel tells his story with voice and guitar, drawing on the techniques that have sustained itinerant blues artists for generations. For this talented fingerstyle guitarist, the instrument is a portable orchestra, with bass lines, chords, and fragments of melody to support his vocals.” . . .Hawaii Public Radio

Over the last 27+ years, Andy Kimbel as an “indie” artist has performed over 2000 shows at a variety of venues from large festivals and concert halls to smaller more intimate folk clubs, house concerts and listening rooms.

The majority of Andy’s audiences who have provided a foundation for his fairly consistent top ten rankings in several indie charts, hail from North America, Canada, and parts of Europe. Fans of the acoustic guitar and those who play are drawn to Andy’s “Acoustic Energy” as his improvisational guitar work shows remarkable musicianship As his fans will attest, Andy's style is indeed his own and comes from within.

Whether it be a performance for 40 people at a folk club or house concert, thousands at a festival or millions on television as he did regularly on QVC earlier in his career, Kimbel makes the stage his home and it shows.
