With bristling cynicism, surrealistic word-play, and a decidedly post-modern veneer couched in eclectic song arrangements, Andy McCutcheon tears through rock's back pages to create a distinctive sound that is reflective, stylish, twisted, and captivating. His track "Rewind" will be featured on an upcoming episode of Showtime's Californication on Novemeber 14th.
From the freewheeling jangle-pop of "Hello," to the angular new wave stylings of The Cars' classic "My Best Friend's Girl," to the musing junkyard balladry of "Life Is Too Short," Andy McCutcheon exudes irony and passion.
Akin to the artistry of Beck, Robyn Hitchcock, Syd Barrett, and early Bowie, McCutcheon tantalizes the senses with an array of emotional depth, a whirlpool mixture of instrumental textures, and astute observations of the human condition molded into splashing pop melodies.
McCutcheon is currently completing a new CD, produced and engineered by triple Grammy-nominated producer, Brad Gilderman. Known for his work with legendary artists such as Eric Clapton, Tom Petty, Brian Wilson, X, and Motley Crue, Gilderman hones McCutcheon's retro-inspired eclecticism into razor-sharp focus, producing a sound that is at once innovative and classic. Adding former Briggs bassist Richard Sanchez and former Resistance drummer Bob Mars to his line up, McCutchon continues to promote his solo releases in the Los Angeles area as well as perform and record with THE REVERSIBLES. Their Performance of "Devil's Favorite Angel" is currently featured in Basilisk Films - Shakespeare's Richard III, staring David Carradine, Sally Kirkland and Danny Trejo.
