Former finalist of The Voice from Greece and vocalist of The Harps, ANDRY decided to embark on his solo career by releasing a preview of his debut full-length album «Skies«. The album’s title track, “Skies«, starts off strong, and is followed by songs like «Mistress of the Night” and “black hole«, encompassing a fast-paced hard rock and metal style, with blues textures, enhanced by his powerful voice. «Skies» summarizes the varied style and artistic range of ANDRYand tells the story of his musical career.
«’Skies‘ is about empowerment and rising from the ashes of a nuclear war, with many allegories to female abuse and my personal life. The album’s artwork is inspired by space and what it could be like in the future.
Since you cannot live in the past, it is comforting to dream about the future and the changes it will bring. I would describe it as Blues and Metal, but above all as any possible mixture of genres, that is, versatile and innovative in terms of new composition recipes. –Andry Lagiouleader and vocalist of ANDRY.
