Harvey Andrews

Harvey is Birmingham's very own folk artist (although he now lives in Shropshire). He began his singer/songwriter career in 1964, rapidly abandoning his training as a schoolteacher when he turned full-time pro in 1966. He has produced 15 albums of his own songs and many have been recorded by other artists, including Mary Hopkin and Christy Moore - one has made it into the Oxford Book of Traditional English Verse. He made his acting debut in the musical 'Go and Play up your Own End' in 1998 for which he wrote the songs.
