Andy Eppler is Americana to the core. In his work he explores themes such as disenchantment, religiosity and the American way. His world-view is dystopian yet hopeful as he writes about the world around him. Andy, a product of West Texan grit and wisdom, has dedicated himself to making meaningful art. His first record "There is No Underground" (2007) was a shotgun style record hitting many genres and topics with ferocity. The second record was the spoken word project "Dark Places" in which Andy read selections of his poetry and short stories. The third record was the breakthrough. "Disease in the Heartland" was his West Texas styled biography that gave him international interest from Magazines, News Papers and Radio. Even more attention was gained when people found out about Eppler's approach to making an album. He plays all the instruments, writes all the material, produces and masters his own records and designs the cover art. His records are a great example of art directly from the artist and free from the filters of others.
All Records are available on iTunes. Andy is now in the process of recording a new record for his side project "The Prairie Scholars" which he has started with his wife Jessica Eppler (of Clandestine Amigo fame).
