Andy's Bio

Andy Day/Keyboards/Vocals

Andy came to music at a very young age. While attending preschool at the age of 4, Andy came in one day and showed his mother all the songs he had heard that day in music class. It was on a one-octave piano that she had bought him at a 5 & 10-cent store. She was so impressed that his family bought a full size piano for his 5^th birthday on the promise to never stop playing. He never has to this day.

Andy has played professionally since getting out of high school. He has played in every kind of band you can name. His desire to be a great keyboard player has paid off through the years. He took a break in the mid 80’s until the mid 90’s to concentrate on his business and family. Moving to Bowling Green, he was ask to play again and renewed his desire to play again. Having played with some of the best around, he met Steve Sanders and Mark Johnson and formed a lasting friendship and brought him to be a member of The New Fender Benders.

Andy restores log cabins and has a large family that he is very proud of. He is very family oriented and a great all around person.

Andy’s influence are wide ranging from Ray Charles, Floyd Cramer, Charlie Rich, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elton John on piano and Greg Rollie, Jon Lord and Greg Allman on B-3. He has the chops and vocal talent to do his own thing, but being a part of the band is where he feels most comfortable. It’s all about playing the right thing at the right time and making the band sound right.
