“Prodigious attaches to the talents of McKenna Andrews like cool on an Eric Clapton solo.” Andrews is a teenager and she’s downright wicked with a guitar and she also sings with a command light years beyond her age. She can definitely bring it with a 2.5 octave vocal range, a stage presence that sizzles and a style that’s all her own!Proof emerges within her newly released three-song EP “Who Knew,” written by McKenna and produced by 4X Grammy Nominated Producer, Travis Wyrick. Released in December 2011, the album features Andrews at full rocking throttle on “That’s How I Roll” bookended by ballads “Still Letting Go” and “Who Knew.” The CD caught the attention of Scott Borchetta, and a meeting was set up in Nashville where Scott offered McKenna advice and direction for honing her talents and learning the music business.

Andrews has appeared in magazines, newspaper articles, and network television interviews and include; Mississippi Magazine, Chicken Soup For The Soul, G7 Girls Magazine, Reader Digest, Weekly Reader, Entro Magazine, Music Trades Magazine and Guitar Player Magazine. She has appeared on CBS Radio with The Former Vice President of Capitol Records & The Father of WoodStock, Artie Kornfeld.
