- Artist Name: Andrew Mitch
- Hometown: Pittsburgh, PA area
What project(s) are you currently working on?
I’m working on a new full-length album, acoustic versions of tracks that are already out, music videos, getting my merchandise store up and running – just everything! That creative process is so exciting, and I can’t wait to start sharing all the fun stuff!
What inspired you to pursue a career in music and when did you know?
I used to listen to my dad sing and play guitar when I was little. He would sit on the staircase, and I’d just want to listen for hours. Overtime, I developed a love for singing in church, writing little songs (even though my first ones were not good at all haha), playing music…eventually I realized there was nothing else I loved more, and I simply HAD to pursue an entertainment career.
If you weren’t pursuing a career in music, what would you be doing for a living?
Before pursuing music in Nashville, I was working on my Ph.D. in biochemistry and physics. So I probably would have stuck with that and would be some sort of professor or research scientist.
What is your favorite downtime activity?
I’ve recently been trying to get much better at my instruments, so practicing guitar and piano have been my go-to activities for when I’m not working.
Who is your biggest celebrity crush?
Matt Bomer, 100% haha.
Who is your favorite sports team(s)?
I don’t really watch sports much, but I grew up around the Pittsburgh area. So I grew up rooting for the Penguins, Pirates, and Steelers.
What is the last movie that you watched?
I just watched “Just Go With It” with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston – I laughed so hard!
What is the last album you listened to?
I’ve been listening to a lot of Ed Sheeran lately. His “Subtract” album is one of my favorites!
If you could only listen to one album for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Gosh, I have so many favorite albums. Both “Stages” by Cassadee Pope and “Lady Like” by Ingrid Andress are constantly on repeat for me, so one of those!
What is the greatest country song of all time?
I don’t think that there is any one country song that is the “greatest,” if I’m being honest. Country music is about storytelling, and everyone can relate to different stories. So I feel like the “greatest” one differs for everyone. But there are some songs that, even if you don’t like country music, everyone knows and everyone can’t help but sing. Songs like “Take Me Home, Country Roads” and “I Will Always Love You” are some of those classic, great country songs.
What has been your favorite city/town that you’ve visited out on the road?
I was briefly out in San Francisco and Los Angeles, and I think the west coast is absolutely stunning. I’ve always wanted to visit it, ever since I was little, so that was so cool to see!
What is your favorite meal?
Anything Italian!
Who is your dream duet partner?
I would love to write and sing with Ed Sheeran or Ingrid Andress!
Who would you like to go on tour with?
Again: Ed Sheeran or Ingrid Andress, haha.
What is your ultimate career goal(s)?
So many different goals, like playing in a stadium and making my Grand Ole Opry debut. But truly, when I get messages from fans or someone comes up to me telling me how much my song changed their life… I mean, that’s a dream come true already!
How can fans connect with you on Social Media?
I’m on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok primarily! Send me a message (@andrewmitchmusic) – I always reply to all my messages! 🙂
