Andrew’s guiding philosophy at Covenant is to select music that spans different eras and styles. Music and the Church have been inseparably intertwined for milleniums, and he believes music can connect us to all who have worshipped before us, and those who worship today. He’s always open to hearing your requests and recommendations, and collaborates with folks in our community with musical gifts to share.
In his other work and free time, Andrew plays piano and piano shaped objects. Focusing on experimental music, he has premiered works by Matt Sargent, Kyle Gann, Ted Hearne, Pamela Madsen, and Ben Richter. In 2021 he was chosen as a Piano Spheres Emerging Artist, and has performed across the United States and some parts of Europe.
Andrew is also a founding member of the new-music piano trio House on Fire, which focuses on commissioning new works for unorthodox instrumentations. Their latest album Dissolution Seedlings was released in 2025 on Sawyer Editions, and the group performs regularly across Southern California. Andrew attended the University of California, Irvine (BMus, 2017), and the California Institute of the Arts (MFA, 2019). His primary teachers have been Nina Scolnik and Vicki Ray. Andrew is currently on staff at Moorpark College, CSUDH, YOLA, and the National Children’s Chorus.
