Andy J Palmer is a London based singer/songwriter who enchants fans of his music with his unique brand of  hazy, sun soaked, feel good music harking back to a golden age. 

Andy is joined in his music by a band that consists of himself on lead vocals and guitar, Alex Gold on additional guitar, Steve Greenwood on Drums and Dan Lucas guesting on Piano and Bass Guitar. 

Earlier this year in May 2024. Andy released his single ‘Higher Than The Sun’ which was well received across the board. Carrying on with his strong releases, Andy is now back with his latest offering of ‘Mystery To Me’.  

‘Mystery To Me’ with its gentle yet crystal clear strumming, echoing guitars and its slow and measured drum beats mixed with those hazy, laid back vocals makes for a truly ethereal and dreamy soundscape in which to lose yourself.

Andy has said of the track: 

“Inspiration for this song came from reading about The Beatles trip to India in 1968 Donovan had also been there with them and during their time there his claw hammer finger picking technique had inspired songs like ‘Dear Prudence’ and ‘Blackbird’ which were written in india and which both ended up being on the White Album.

The Beatles never get boring to me and this song came from me attempting to emulate the finger picking style of playing.

I love the drums on this track as well which were recorded in my kitchen ( the song started out being recorded live using my beloved but out of tune upright piano which sounded great – we de tuned the other instruments to be in with the piano and had the drum kit isolated in the kitchen – although it had a vibe when I got in the studio to record the vocals we had to re do everything but we did keep the drums which for me was worth it in itself …the piano on the record sounds even better and overall worked out a better tune.”

‘Mystery to Me’  is also being released with an accompanying music video which is a cinematic showreel with a real old school, hand held home video recorder vibe to it adding to the overall rose tinted glasses,  nostalgic feel of the track. 

‘Mystery To Me’ was Recorded, Mixed and Mastered at The Joplin House Recording Studios in Kent by Andy J Palmer and Dan Lucas.
