Andy G and Friends Family

02:00 PM| 78 Church St S, Ajax ON

Canadian Folk-Roots artist Andy Griffiths' love of music has led him to write a number of original songs. His family, friends and even his pets, have been a key source of inspiration of the songs he writes. This is most evident with his smash hit “OUR CAT FLASH”. Andy's shows mostly feature his own music, with some classic children's music thrown in for good measure. His concerts are interactive and fun for both children and parents.

 

“Andy Griffiths' charm, melodic voice, and lovely guitar music won over the visitors at Artfest Toronto. His vast repertoire of favourite tunes was impressive...and his natural ability of connecting with the crowd. Charming!”

Lory MacDonald - Artistic Director and General Manager, Artfest Ontario
