Andy Knox @ Head of Steam

Reviewed by Stephen Ferrell

The Head of Steam was packed as Andy Knox and his band took the stage. It had been relatively empty for the other bands at this latest to far north event. So it was clear who the majority of the crowd had come to see. The crowd were not left disappointed either as Andy proved himself to be a highly talented and entertaining front man. Well received by the crowd with frequent calls of Knoxy! coming from his supporters. The crowd were very much into this gig with crowd surfing even taking place as the bands set was coming to an end. As anyone who has been to a gig downstairs at the Head of Steam knows this is generally a small intimate venue to play. So to inspire crowd surfing and a rowdy reaction is quite an achievement. Backing singer/songwriter Andy were the exceptionally talented Stevie on bass, Franco on drums, Dom on keyboards and luke on fiddle. Andy Knox is certainly a performer I would recommend people look out for in future, so next time you see his name on a flyer get yourself down to the gig. More immediately then that though you can check out his tracks on I-Tunes.
