Andrea Maxand is a singer-songwriter from Seattle, Washington. She has been making music her entire life, starting with the piano and in recent years, the guitar. In 1997 she was living in Bellingham (a college town north of Seattle) and formed her first band, the Minerals. Performing and writing songs with the indie-pop group in Seattle and elsewhere formed the foundation for Maxand's clever songwriting style.
After the band split, Maxand returned to her native Seattle and spent over a year writing new material. Laden with an array of fabulous music, she subsequently went into the studio to work with Chris Walla (of Death Cab for Cutie) for her solo debut, Angel Hat. The sparse arrangements highlight Maxand's remarkable vocals and biting lyrics. Angel Hat was released to some great critical acclaim, and Andrea was convinced to re-record some of those songs with a full band. With the help of Jason McGerr and Chuck Fuller (formerly of Eureka Farm and now of the amazing Seattle band Neo), Andrea recorded new material, again with the help of Chris Walla, which comprises her brand new EP Paper Cut. Now with a great rhythm section, Andrea Maxand plans to fully support both releases with local shows and an upcoming tour. Thank you for listening.
