Still feisty in his 60’s, Andy’s recent compositions include: “Excuse Me Your Planet Is Burning”, “The New American Century”, a tongue in cheek tribute to Canada's southern neighbours and “Duped”, a bitter take on the war in Iraq.

Quote: After more than 20 years of writing and singing about these matters, It's great to see so much attention on global warming and associated issues. If we all do all we can do, we'll get this problem licked!
