Band Bio: Andrew Huggan is a folk singer/songwriter from Central Scotland. He has been playing music ever since he was a small child but it's only within the last decade that he started to take it more seriously. In 2003, Andrew went to his first ever Runrig gig. He was so amazed by the gig that the very next day he went out and bought his first guitar and ordered Flower of the West (the Runrig songbook). From this, he taught himself to play the guitar and to sing. It wasn't long after this that he wrote his first song "Ben Ledi" and realised that song writing would become a great passion in the years to come. During the Hebridean Celtic Festival in 2007 he got the chance to play his songs “Take Me Away Across the Sea” and “Lonely Lonely Night” live on BBC Radio nan Gàidheal. In summer 2009 he was invited to play at Elphin Drift, an acoustic evening in Yorkshire. His performance went down well with the audience and he was invited back to play at the next Elphin Drift which was in November. 2010 looks to be a good year for Andrew, who is now hoping to start work on his debut album, something which has been on his mind for a few years now. In February, Andrew will be performing at Skipinnish Ceilidh House, Oban, supporting folk rock band COAST on their debut Scottish tour.   Read Less »
