Andy is a prodigious young talent who frequently pops down the Bear to have a blow with “Mr Hamilton”. You may have seen him busking in New Street, but he has also headlined at the Drum, Birmingham's Ronnie Scotts and the Jazz Café, London.

He studied Jazz at Guildhall, and he has worked with many bands including Jazz Jamaica. Leading mentors are Papa Saxa and of course Andy Hamilton.

Andy Gayle, one of the best of Birmingham's young Jazz musicians has just recorded his first CD, "I have a dream". You can buy it at Swordfish Records, Temple Street in Birmingham City Centre.
