Ok, I thought we needed a topic dedicated to this guy, because he's amazing!!
He and David were in the band Mid West Kings together, and now Andy has completed an EP under the name of To Have Heroes. Here's his myspace page (for those of you who have myspace). He's pretty phenomenal. http://www.myspace.com/tohaveheroes A cute note from Andy on his myspace page: What do you do when you’re not a band, but you’re not a solo artist? You give it a name. I chose, "To Have Heroes", to be that name. This is my "project". Over the past eight years of my life I’ve become friends with some incredible musicians. Some live in Tulsa, some in Austin, Nashville, and New York. Oh yeah, and one lives in American Idol. To Have Heroes is my way of beginning to see what I sound like with the help of all of these different "musically inclined" friends. Right now I’m writing and recording some new songs, and maybe hanging on to a few old ones. There will be new music very soon so please keep checkin' in. I hope you dig it, if not, go somewhere else. Peas, -andy skib Share you thoughts. |

I remember when I first heard of Midwest Kings. Andy walked into my parents restaurant and I thought he was one of the best looking guys I've ever seen
 . Then, my mom told me that he's in some band called Midwest Kings. So I looked them up and I fell in love with Andy's voice. My friend and I were obsessed with Andy and MWK for the longest time. (Actually, I never even noticed David was in the band ><) After a while, my MWK listening experience kind of died down as I explored different artists. Then, when I heard about David Cook and found out that he was part of MWK, I started listening to them again (and can't believe I stopped) and gave To Have Heroes a listen. I didn't know if I'd like it since Andy's old side project (The Pearls) wasn't my favorite. But THH is amazing and I am recommending To Have Heroes to everyone. Andy has a lot of talent: great writer and amazing vocalist. Everyone should give Midwest Kings and To Have Heroes a listen. Both bands just released an EP each.
