A Week in the Life of a Locked Down Musician: Andy Quick
2 July 2020
Andy Quick is a singer, songwriter, guitarist, booking agent, band leader and dad. He has toured extensively for years as far as Europe and Asia with his two festival bands, always returning to his home in Plymouth where he has lived for 14 years.
For his ‘A Week in the Life of a Locked Down Musician' commission Andy has produced a video diary. It gives an interesting and amazingly personal insight into his experience of the recent lockdown, as he juggles looking after his four year old son with moving house and preparing for an acoustic performance.
In the video Andy talks about how he’s dealt with the enforced change in his pace of life, how being a dad and taking regular exercise have helped him cope, and how important being productive and performing live are to him.
Watch it now on our YouTube channel (running time 14 minutes 40 seconds).
