Andy B.
Andy describes “Jam” music as the organic, improvisational aspect of “Blues“ and “Jazz,“ an ebb and flow of dynamics that's further influenced by audiences. The lively, jamming exchange between bandmates and the differences in the way the songs are played each time ensures that no two shows are alike, providing an exciting atmosphere.
