Here's the new CD for 2008 (almost '09) Click on Miss Carol, the Chicken to find out how to order a disk, or download an MP3 from CDBaby. Bil Lepp says this is my best one so far, but what does he know.
Here's the official descriptive blurb: Recorded, live, on July 3, 2008 at the International Storytelling Center in Jonesborough, Tennessee. Don’t worry, Andy fans: this album contains tales of that eighty-five year-old, newly minted physician, Aunt Marguerite Van Camp. We’ll learn how Dr. Marguerite obtained her own “blue law.” How her late husband had been a Shakespeare nut, and we’ll hear of Marguerite’s encounter with an amateur professional wrestler. But Andy gets more personal than ever on this collection of stories. We’ll hear about his sons, Liam, the Night Toddler, and Tristan, the Microcephalic Adventurer, that Flying Kapoo. “This is Andy’s best work yet.” – Bil Lepp

On this record we’ll learn how Marguerite became a self-described “recovering racist.” We’ll discover how Andy created an undeniable ghost in the cemetery for his boyhood friends. We’ll find out what happens when a deer looks in a mirror. There are flying rubber snakes, smashed watermelons, leaping Milk Duds, falling mannequins and roped-in beauty queens. Andy is Foghorn Leghorn meets Lily Tomlin meets William Blake.

Book Every Saturday For A Funeral
Listen / Buy a real CD or Download an MP3 from CDBaby OR iTunes Andy is having big fun touring his one-man show based on this record, Book Every Saturday for a Funeral. Here's the official descriptive blurb: Marguerite, an 80-something-year-old widow, is tired of the bridge-club-garden-club scene, so she and her friends go to medical school and open a hospital in rural Georgia, Southern White Old Lady Hospital. Marguerite is a self-proclaimed recovering racist who is in love with life. As she says, "when all your Saturdays are booked for funerals you have to pay attention and love everybody you can." This theatrical show of stories features Marguerite's friends and her late - but sometimes visiting - husband Charles. Audiences will roar with laughter at the antics of these well-meaning women while opening their hearts to these universal stories of family, aging, death and the joys of living. To have him come to your theatre (or library or recital hall or garage) contact the good folks at Loyd Artists: loydartists.com.
