Artist Biography by Robert Cummings

Andrew York has had equal success as a composer and concert guitarist. In both realms he has deftly straddled two worlds: classical and crossover. His compositions typically mix classical music with folk and rock elements and have attracted some of the foremost classical guitarists in the world, including John Williams, Christopher Parkening, and David Brandon. As a performer York became well known as a member of the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet, a group for which he wrote many compositions and arrangements, a fair number of which were recorded. But even for the decade-and-a-half that he was a member of the LAGQ, York also appeared as a soloist in concert, typically drawing positive critical notice both at home and at international venues. York's works and performances are available on a variety of major labels, including EMI, Telarc, Sony, and Delos.
Andrew York was born in Atlanta, GA, in 1958. His father was a folk guitarist and his mother a singer. Young Andrew began playing the guitar at an early age, focusing on both classical and folk music.
York earned a bachelor's degree in music at James Madison University in Virginia and a master's at the University of Southern California. He had further advanced studies in Spain. In his student years he had developed interest in both rock and jazz styles, but without ever abandoning classical.
York met guitarist John Williams at a 1986 concert in Spain given by York, and Williams was impressed with York's composition Sunburst. Williams played it in concert and eventually recorded it. Later on, Williams also played and recorded York's Lullaby.
