"God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord."
"The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
Andy has lived a life that has often brought him to his knees as he recognizes the Truth and Grace of the above verses.
This reflects in his music.
Andy's first album in 2008 "In The Stillness" had four nominations at the following GMA's that year.
In 2016 Andy released an album "Nothing Short of a Miracle". Two songs from that album were nominated and won in there categories; "Blues/Jazz" song of the year and "Country" song of the Year.
Although Taylor does not consider himself to be a Blues player or a County singer, his raspy, soulful sound and his ability to tell stories in song awarded him those honours.
Andy's recent experience with God has brought him to a place of total gratitude, dependence and surrender.
The challenge with an artist is to truly reflect experiences in the writing and composing of music.
Andy is now in the process of writing new music that reflects that beautiful necessary surrender and God's presence and covering in his life, past and present.
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters,
whenever you face trials of many kinds,
because you know that the testing of your faith
produces perseverance."
