Very few artists can have claimed to have shared a stage with artists as diverse as Rambling Jack Elliot, Dick Gaughan and Kinky Friedman but Nels Andrews is that artist. Recognised as a consummate songwriter within the Americana circle, his breakthrough came in 2012 with the release of the album 'Scrimshaw'. As the name suggests, it is a perfectly crafted and carved piece of work which was instantly acclaimed by Bob Harris as one of his albums of the year.
Drawing comparisons with Tom Waits and Van Morrison's Astral Weeks' period, Nels is currently the focus of critical acclaim. 'Like finding a seashell in a dusty cupboard and suddenly discovering the sound of the ocean'.
Nels is currently touring with Banjo player, Brandon Seabrook and makes his Belper debut next Friday. Tickets available from The Cherry Orchard in Market Square,Belper.
