Andy's Reviews

5 out of 5

Andy was fantastic, he was very professional and our guests really enjoyed his music.

As Count Almaviva, Andy MacDonald gave a powerful vocal performance that brought out the Count’s bullying nature to perfection. This was essential to the story and I have seen performances where the Count has merely been rather aloof and even boring. Andy MacDonald was very far from that.

A little gem of a performance comes from Andy MacDonald [...] Sit Down You’re Rockin’ the Boat warranted an encore. Just to cement the excellent beginning, on comes Andy MacDonald. An excellent performance throughout with a voice to savour. As Nicely-Nicely Johnson, it is his lot to open the vocal proceedings and he set the highest of standards.
