Andy White (born 28 May 1962) is a Northern Irish singer-songwriter, poet and author, born in Belfast. He started writing poetry and music early, penning poems including one called "Riots" aged nine which was later included in his first collection. Playing bass and then acoustic guitar, White attended Methodist College Belfast and studied English Literature at Robinson College, Cambridge, graduating in 1984. He released his first EP Religious Persuasion in 1985 on Stiff Records, and debut album Rave on Andy White in 1986. Since then he has released fourteen solo albums plus numerous compilations and live albums, and has collaborated with many other artists including Peter Gabriel, Sinéad O'Connor and English producer John Leckie. White won Ireland's Hot Press Songwriter of the Year Award in 1993. In 1995, he released an album (Altitude) with Tim Finn (of Split Enz) and Liam Ó Maonlaí (of Hothouse Flowers); the trio recorded as ALT. In 2023, White and Finn collaborated on the album AT. White's most recent album of new works is Good Luck I Hope You Make It (2024), his first wholly spoken word recording. His current release is The night is approaching though some would say it was morning (2025), a live album recorded on 14 July 2023 in Abbey Road Studio Two, produced by John Leckie and containing performances of songs from all stages of his career. A book of lyrics and poems, The Music Of What Happens, was published in 1999 by Lagan Press. In 2009, his first work of prose (21st Century Troubadour) was published, also by Lagan, with a second volume of poetry (Stolen Moments) (Another Lost Shark Press, Brisbane) following in 2011. A double CD collection 21st Century Troubadour was released in 2012 to accompany the book of the same name. After releasing his first two albums through Decca and MCA, a long relationship with UK roots label Cooking Vinyl, and a live performance album for Real World Records/WOMAD, White currently records for ALT Recordings licensed through UK label Floating World Records. White tours often. He has performed live at Glastonbury Festival, most recently in 2025, and many international rock festivals including WOMAD UK (where he hosted the gala finale in 2005), performing at and MCing the main stage at the Fleadh in London, WOMAD festivals in South Africa, USA, Italy, Cacares, Madrid, Singapore and Womadelaide, international folk festivals including Cambridge (UK); Calgary, Winnipeg, Vancouver (Canada); Port Fairy and Woodford (Australia). White is best known for songs such as "Religious Persuasion", "James Joyce's Grave", "Street Scenes From My Heart", "Italian Girls on Mopeds", "Another Sunny Day", and noted for the political and literary content of his work. In 2011, White and Canada-based songwriter Stephen Fearing recorded a collaborative album, Fearing & White, a collection of songs written at infrequent intervals over the course of a decade. The duo released a second album Tea And Confidences in March 2014. On the 30th an
