Vicky Andres & Max McFarland Much More Than Noise
Bio:
Immersed in her live shows, Vicky Andres performs with complete abandon. She leaves every performance energized. Her passionate vocals can move from a vulnerable whisper to a courageous roar! Her intricate guitar work on both acoustic and electric is driving and rhythmic. She mixes funk, single note lines with chord progressions that flow with a songwriting sensibility that hook the listener and never let go.
“Vicky Andres should be acknowledged as being among the leading singer songwriters of her generation. Her songs – self confessional, passionate, life affirming, full of poetic imagery and always intelligent, combined with her rich, powerfully engaging, slightly on the edge voice and imaginative, sensitive guitar playing – draws the listener in and never lets up. Vicky is truly an outstanding talent. She needs to be heard by many!!!” David Maxwell, Tone-Cool Records
“Power and passion. An amazing singer and songwriter. Startlingly original, Vicky Andres has the chops to go all the way to the top.” Dave Isaac, WKIT Bangor, ME
Max McFarland is a rare gem. His percussive bass playing style on his custom-made eleven-string bass makes him far more than a supportive bass player. Max navigates a highway-sized, fret-less neck with ease. He has a fresh approach to his two-handed technique that is ahead of its time. Together Vicky and Max deliver an intense performance that is edgy, energetic and positive, fitting somewhere between Alternative, Rock and Funk.
