Bio
Andrew Steck is a composer and multi-instrumentalist from Athens, Georgia.
Most recent release, The Electric Nutcracker, is a “rock band” arrangement of The Nutcracker with elements of funk, psychedelia, synth pop, doo-woo, disco, reggae, and touches of post punk and classic rock.
The first full-length album, Inner Loop / Outer Loop (2020), is all orchestral drawing from a variety of sources from baroque (Cucumber Water) to 20th Century tonality (Disco Ostinato), rhythm & blues to tango (Tango Arcana), various folk music approaches to electronic music production.
The Covers EP (2021) features orchestral re-imaginings from artists such as Dolly Parton, Danzig, and Ween.
Indie Classical (2021) / Indie Classical (Redux) (2022) consists of smaller combinations of instruments – primarily a work for string quartet and a wind quartet.
The albums Theater and Sore Thumb utilize aforementioned approaches, while adding more jazz, hip hop, and rock influences. Electric guitars are added here and there along with synthesizer effects and studio sound manipulation. Mostly instrumental, Sore Thumb does contain some vocal tracks.
The Mouth Remains Closed During Strenuous Activity is an electronica-oriented three-song EP.
The single, Drinking With the Devil, takes the hilarious poem by Ripley Keller and sets it in a musical cartoon fever dream with Jeremy Dyson providing the unhinged narration.
