What is Après-Ski?
Meaning “after ski” in French, Après-Ski is typically a happy hour hang out at resorts, bars, and patios in the late afternoon/early evening. Skiers (and snowboarders!) will hang out, have food and drinks, and often are drawn to the best live music in the area (played by yours truly).
The vibe can range from casual fireside drinks to high-energy outside parties with live music and DJs. Andy provides the perfect mix of casual vibes with higher energy music to keep the festivities going, whether you’re just trying to relax or dance around.

5-Star Reviews for Après Ski Gigs
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Andy is an amazing musician and entertainer. He is a consummate professional, personable, and reliable, which is very important in this business. His repertoire is extensive! He plays something for every demographic. On some of his covers, he sounds almost exactly like the original singer.
He plays twice a month here [and] we have so much fun when he is here. He draws the largest crowd when he plays here, which drives the most sales.
I highly recommend Andy for your entertainment needs.

Andy is one of the best rhythm guitar players and versatile vocalists that I have heard. He has an incredible range in emulating the best singers in the world.
He has built a reputation as a crowd and staff favorite, and we always look forward to having him at STEEP.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept tips?
There’s no better way to tell me you’re having a good time (other than dancing and singing along) than to let me know with a tip! I appreciate any and all tips via cash or Venmo. You can always find my Venmo QR code on my A-frame sign or set lists or business cards that will be available at the gig – public or private!

I am also available to book gigs up to 6 months in advance. I may require a deposit for 3+ months in advance to reserve the time slot.

The cost per performance can vary depending on venue, type of performance (public/private, size), location, travel time, and more. The best way to find out the cost for your venue/need would be to reach out via my Booking Form and get a quote for your needs!
