Andy and Ariana - Eye to Eye ( 2013)

“Eye to Eye” is a collection of 12 songs written, performed and recorded by Andy and Ariana.  Musically the album draws on a variety of sources for inspiration, from the music of far-off lands to the scene at home in the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia.  If a genre can be ascribed to this collection, it might be “gypsy-soul jazz-folk”.  The album features a variety of flavours. Jazz, pop, eastern European, ragtime, mid-east and Latin inspired grooves all get melded into Andy and Ariana's distinct sound; Andy's mouth percussion replaces the usual drum kit and Ariana's violin, saxophone and clarinet, along with Andy's guitar,
