To My Swimming Partner 

Dear ma’am,

First, allow me to apologize. When we said our goodbyes at the time I had just completed about two hours worth of various “work outs” and I was in such a haze(trying to make my way to the sauna) that I forgot to ask your name.

But onward.

I am writing this letter in thanks, not because you “pulled me out” of a dark place or “made me feel confident” but because you were a confirmation.…

Restrain

It's difficult being the nice, being calm. Feeling anger is normal, it's what you do with it.

Thank you for reading this poem, leave your thoughts no matter what, in the comments bellow. I was listening to this song while writing and I recommend it for a good listen. Enjoy

Welcome Back

Just spruced up my site, now it's time to get back to blogging. What would you like to read?

Welcome back, welcome back one and all. If you’ve managed to find your way back to this place you’ve probably noticed a little change or two. Since my last entry, 2 years ago(damn man) a lot has been happening. Most of you probably know about the Andrew Fisher Quartet. Since moving back to Michigan back in 2015 that has been taking the bulk of my time, plus work and other solo/collaborative work…

The Return: The show must go on

The Return: The show must go on

Hello all, it’s been too long of time since my last post. I must admit that I’ve been in a strange place the last couple months. I’ve been in a dark place and only with the help of my friends and family have I’ve been able to carry on. I was questioning a lot of myself and what I was doing in my life and what things were important and which things weren’t. Needless to say, I have been a major…

A Turn in the Road

As I grow older I learn more and more. One thing I am more convinced of now more than ever before is that life is not a straight path. You plan for one thing and something that you least expects happens. You do your best to plan but life will throw curve balls and all you can do is handle it as best you can.

The reason why this post is entitled, “A Turn in the Road” is because I haven’t reached a…

The Show Must(Is) Go On

This post will be rather short but I felt that I needed to let you all know what is going on.

Because of circumstances and other things(which I can’t go into) I sadly had to leave Florida and head back to my home in Michigan. Yes, sadly I had to leave the Tampa Opera and also Saint Paul’s Catholic church. I just got home a day ago and I’m still getting on track here but I promise to continue to…

Judgement: Get used to it!

Well Andrew, you promised two post a week and so far you’re off to bad start!

Yes, I am ashamed. I promise you that I don’t intend to procrastinate, I’m just so good at it. Anyways to the topic at hand!

“Andrew, what in the world is this topic about?”

I’m glad you asked. At the end of 2014 there were two singers who had a ton buzz around them about their singing.

First was Mariah Carey. While…

2015: Time to Grow

I just finished the first post to my blog for 2015, please enjoy. I want to wish all of you a happy new year. Here are some of my goals for this year: 2015: Time to Grow

Happy New Year!

I hope all of you had a most fabulous New Year celebration. I enjoyed my little break and also I am now getting over a cold, now it’s back to the grind.

I have learned my lesson of having illusions of grandeur. Now, I would love to win a Grammy this year but I’m just gonna not expect that one. One thing I do plan for, however, is growth. I’m fortunate to know myself well enough…

Piano Fundraiser

It’s been crazy and exciting since moving to Saint Petersburg. The fundraiser for the performing keyboard is still going on.

Anything you can do to help will be greatly appreciated. There are some rewards as well. Anyone who donates can request a song that I will record and dedicate it to you. Also depending on the amount I will knit you a scarf. Any extra funds will be used for purchasing of…
