TROUBADOUR

acoustic / blues / country / folk / pop /

Sharing a love of the outdoors, kayaking, rock climbing, snowboarding and surfing, Andy and Mick spent many an evening jamming around the campfire underneath the stars. Improvisation turned into songs, and the realisation that there was something special here. Early in 2007 Andy and Mick became Troubadour, and set about carving a path on their musical journey around the North West, Great Britain and beyond…

The duo are based in Blackpool, but as their name suggests, Troubadour are no strangers to 'the road', gigging as far afield as Europe, New York and California, and performing in such prestigious venues as York's Grand Opera House, Liverpool's Cavern Club, and The Lowry Theatre on Salford Quays.

Following the success of their debut album, Carnival Town (which included one of the tracks being snapped up by the BBC and used in the drama, ‘Waterloo Road’), Troubadour now have all the songs for the second album written. Most of the new songs are firmly in place in the live set and have gone down a storm with audiences at Troubadour shows, and with festival crowds, up and down the country.
