Based out of Minneapolis, Minnesota, André Rodriguez is one of the premier
indie-alternative songwriters in the Midwest. The newly released album, titled
Somewhere New, is a compilation of Rodriguez's best songs from the past three
years. Somewhere New is an artful presentation of songwriting, combining
memorable melodies with thoughtful storytelling. Produced by Minneapolis' Luke
Fredrickson, the new disc also features guest appearances by André's brother,
Dan Rodriguez and Breanne Düren of Owl City.
Born in Rochester, Michigan, André started playing piano at the age of four and
studied classical music throughout high school. During his teenage years he
developed a love for composing and arranging. In 2000, he moved to Minneapolis
to study music at North Central University where he received his degree in music
performance. In 2005, André released his debut album, Closed Doors Open, which
received praise from organizations such as Musician's Resource Magazine, We Are
Listening, and TAXI. With the current arrival of his sophomore record, Weekly
Indie hails that "Rodriguez is back and greater than ever."
