“I think I was always going to be involved in music in some way, coming from a music loving family….I think it’s in my blood”

Since taking up the guitar at the age of 10, Andrew has become an acclaimed musician.

With a career that already boasts international touring and multiple album releases with his band The Mentulls, collaborations with Grammy Award winners and rock legends, and features in Classic Rock Magazine, Prog, Guitar Techniques, and more, Andrew Pipe has established himself as one of the UK’s new crop of dynamic and expressive guitarists, praised by Prog Magazine for his “exceptional guitar virtuosity.” From his teenage years — when he earned back-to-back British Blues Awards nominations — to today, his blend of musicality and versatility continues to resonate across genres.

Recent years have seen him share the stage and work with many of his heroes and musical greats. Jethro Tull’s Martin Barre noted, “He’s in a different league as a young musician, full of inspiring ideas, great energy.” Alongside this, he has performed with legendary acts like Wishbone Ash and undertaken studio work with members of 10cc, Camel and Gary Moore’s band among others. His playing and compositions have reached global audiences via BBC Radio 2, BBC 6 Music, Planet Rock, and numerous local BBC stations, including multiple live sessions.
