Andrew Morley - The Academy Theatre, Barnsley


ANDREW Morley isn’t a name you’ll be familiar with. But it won’t be like
that for long.
The singer songwriter has a haunting, angelic voice, that tells great emotional stories straight from his heart.
In his fitted suit, shirt and tie, with his hair brushed back and dark rimmed glasses, he has the look and sound of the rock legends who inspired him.
But he’s more than a 21st century Holly, Cochran, Orbison or Lennon. In fact he’s more in common with Sheffield’s own Mercury Music Award nominee Richard Hawley, who requested to play on Andrew’s forthcoming debut album, Tomorrow.
The 6ft 5ins gentle giant, with a deep Brinsworth accent, is a different creature when he sings, hitting high notes with a powerful alto voice, coupled with a distinctive use of falsetto. It’s an amazing but pleasant transformation as he delivers his self-penned poetic ballads of lost love, including heartbreaker Love Cuts To The Bone, and foot tapping rock and roll, such As End Of The Line.
His songs sound like old familiar hits, which will guarantee him an instant following. They sit well beside covers of Presley’s Burning Love, Valens’ La Bamba and Parton’s multi-million selling Whitney Houston classic, I Will Always Love You.
Dad Ian, who fronts Buddy Holly tribute band Hollydayz, was invited up for a handful of crowd pleasers – Peggy Sue and That’ll Be The Day. But the night belonged to his lead guitarist.

The Richard Hawley sessions - music icon records with Andrew



MERCURY Music Award nominee Richard Hawley plays on Andrew’s latest body of work, called Tomorrow.

Boy On A Dolphin star John Reilly organised a recording session for Andrew at the Yellow Arch studios in Sheffield.
As he was recording the title track, unbeknown to him, Richard Hawley entered the control room.

He was that impressed with what he heard, he offered to play on the sessions.
Andrew sauid: “As I walked into the control room to have a listen, there stood a tall guy that looked as though he had just walked out of the fifties. He had his hair greased back, was wearing winkle pickers, jeans turned up at the bottom, a teddy boy type shirt and a black coat.

“I didn’t know who he was at that point.
“But Richard went on to compliment me, said I had a fantastic voice and we had a brief chat about the music, before I continued to record the next song.

“To my delight and amazement I was then told he wanted to record the whole album with me. I was gob smacked and must have looked like a Cheshire cat for the rest of the day.’’

Around late November 2004 we started recording and Richard brought his backing band with him. I introduced myself and still couldn’t believe I was working with these guys but most of all on my songs.

“We had a great laugh too and for me it was fantastic to be surrounded by like minded people, I was in the musical equivalent to mecca. Richard and the guys commented on how much they enjoyed my music and also working with me.

“Richard wanted to make sure we were doing everything as I wanted. My answer was they were doing everything right for me. I didn’t see the need to comment if I had no reason to. Richard and the guys really appreciated this and you could see the respect we had for one another further develop.

“Overall it was a great experience and I would love to work with Richard and the guys in the future. The most memorable moments for me though were out of the studio, when Richard took me to the pub and introduced me to everyone, we then went onto his house and listen to his private collection of records until 4am, on his little Danset record player. He then went ont o let me listen to a CD he was working on and asked for my opinion. It later went onto be the Mercury award winning Coles Corner. Richard also gave me a lot of advice . When he heard the completed record, he phoned me up and told me he thought I’d done a great job and he was proud to be associated with the record. I am so humbled that Richard wanted to work with me and my music, but I also like to think most of all I gained a friend.
