Andrew Wasylyk:
UK Artist of the Week

You may already know Andrew Mitchell as the guitarist in Idlewild’s current line up or as front man for The Hazey Janes. Well, we’re here to tell you that he’s decided to release a debut album that’s very close to his heart, under alias Andrew Wasylyk.

The album, Soroky is named after his grandfather Iwan Wasylyk’s home town in Ukraine and is quite a departure from Andrew’s usual sound—or at least the sound he’s been so adept at dishing out in one of his many band projects.

There’s a tenderness to his voice that straddles the line between heartfelt rock ballad and musical theatre which we’re certainly not complaining about. Recorded on the Isle Of Mull (which appears to be a hotbed for emerging Scottish artists at the moment), the album will be dropping on November 6th, so keep your eyes and ears peeled.

Andrew is currently gearing up for a UK tour—which you can check out here on his Bandcamp—and you can follow him on Twitter.
