"Nels Andrews’ lyrics take us from the West Coast to the East, into desert-scapes, sea-scapes and beyond. He skillfully combines the supernatural, the natural, the beautiful, the wistful, with a subtle sense of magic and mystery. It has a slightly psychedelic lingering nod to the sixties and the era of alternative, artistic living; a kind of ‘On The Road’ Nels Andrews style” Julie Williams-Nash, Folk & Tumble , IRL 
 Although he was born by the sea, it wasn’t until he moved to the desert that Nels Andrews began writing songs. He sang them alone in a house constructed of mud and tires on the sage-brushed mesas of Taos, New Mexico where he spent his 20’s, airing them occasionally around campfires. Eventually he found his voice as a crooner of literary narratives and increasingly impressionistic story songs. Now, happily stationed by the sea again in Santa Cruz, Andrews has gracefully woven the morning fog, redwoods, and oceanside into his newest record Pigeon and The Crow, produced by traditional Irish flutist Nuala Kennedy (Gerry O’Conner, Will Oldham). A songwriter’s record in the spirit of Van Morrison’s Veedon Fleece with a breath of the texture, rhythm, and longing of Milton Nascimento’s Club De Esquina , Pigeon and The Crow brims with literary wordplay, mixed with some sway, some shimmer, and some sand between your toes.
