ABOUT ANDY "THE MUSIC MAN"….
Andy "The Music Man" Morse is a popular children's musician based in the Capitol Region, he is renowned for the special way he connects with his audiences. A rhythmic guitarist, mandolin player and songwriter, Andy mingles traditional and original songs and novelty, delighting and involving kids, parents and care givers through sing-a-longs, dancing, play-acting and storytelling.
Says musician Scott Bierko, "Andy off-stage is Andy on-stage: funny, quick-witted, warm and in-the-moment. He obviously has mastery of his planned set, but he riffs with the audience by listening, watching and reacting to what's going on around him. He speaks to the audience of parents and kids with equal respect and weaves their ideas into his songs with ease."
Andy will be gratefully celebrating 30yrs in 2025 of being a full time musician. Andy's career has brought him all over the USA and is firmly rooted working with preschool, pre-k, Kindergarten, special-ed and beyond. He also has a popular Grateful Dead tribute band called, The Wheel.
