Editorial Reviews Influences: Ray Charles Genre: Relaxation & Stress Reduction Similar-Sounding Artists: Janni, Al Jarreau Biography... A native of Lafayette, Louisiana, Darrel Andrews began his music studies on the Bb trumpet as a junior in high school. During those days, music was not a part of the curriculum and there was no band room. Instruction and practice were sometimes done outside after hours, weather permitting, under large oak trees. Before attending Southern University in Baton Rouge, Andrews thought in terms of majoring in carpentry like two older brothers had done before him, but decided to try music instead. He had been doing carpentry work with his father since he was twelve years old, and figured he could fall back on his carpentry experience if the music didn't work out. After graduating from Southern University with a B.S. degree in Music Education, Andrews started the band program at Carroll High School in Monroe, Louisiana, where he remained until retirement in 1979. During the 70's, singer Ray Charles sponsored a recording session of seven of Andrews' tunes, and two tunes were recorded by Bobby "Blue" Bland. Later, Andrews received a Masters Degree in music from VanderCook College of Music in Chicago, Il. During his 28 years as Band Director he wrote many original compositions which were used for half-time shows. He also supplied music for a drama entitled "Attica 7" dealing with prison reform, which was presented on the campus of Northeast Louisiana University. Similar-Sounding Artists are Janni and Al Jarreau. The Medical Community could benefit from these Albums because of the therapuetic values.
