The singer and songwriter talks to Cal about how life experiences turn into music. The conversation leads to the background behind Andy's hits: Honey I'm Good, Keep Your Head Up and Fresh Eyes. But at its deepest level the discussion delves into the process that we all must go through to create. The takeaways are many. How to keep going when nobody around you seems to be paying attention to what you're doing. How having a hit can be just as stressful to the creation process as striving for the first. And how to keep expanding.
