Just Can`t Get It - Little Andrew

In 1996, Andreas Stamnes entered the Norwegian blues scene through the legendary Norwegian blues pub Muddys Pub in Spydeberg. Despite his young age of only 16, Andreas quickly made a name for himself as a talented singer and guitarist. During the winter of 1999 he was invited to tour all over Florida with the famous blues master David C. York, better known as Rock Bottom. Andreas returned to Norway seething with inspiration and energy, and formed a group of his own: Little Andrew & The Blue Masters. They won the Union Blues Cup in 2000 and toured all over Norway throughout the millenium. Some highlights included Notodden Blues Festival, Åmål Blues Festival, Drøbak Blues Festival, Oslo Jazz Festival and many others. The rest, as they say, is history. To back him, Little Andrew has picked among the best musicians from the Norwegian blues scene. Pål M. Dahlø on bass, Robert Skoglund on the drums and a pianoplayer as the fourth instrument. Little Andrew is known as “The uncrowned king of rock n´ blues in Norway”, he and his band are yet again ready to rumble the road. In summer 2007, Little Andrew released his debut album “Rock Back To Bottom” which was well received both in Norway and in the US. In 2010 he released ”Loadstone”, It was nominated best blues album of the year at “Spellemannsprisen” (Norwegian Grammy Awards 2010). 2012 came along and he released his last album “Bloodrush”. It is what the name tells you, a bloodrush! Little Andrew is a mix of the best from American music with both feets in the hearth of blues and he`s back on the road so there´s no reason to stay home “Take my advice and check out my friend Little Andrew, and you too will pleasantly surprised!” - Kid Ramos
