Biography
Andrew was born on 19 December 1944 in Somerset, England. Initially it was acting rather than music that attracted him and he studied the theater at Italia Conti Stage School in London. That changed at age 16 when he discovered a knack for playing piano by ear and for writing original tunes.
After leaving Italia Conti, Andrew split his time between his day job at a shoe factory and travel with Contemporary Christian Music group The Four Kingsmen. He was with the group for four years before leaving to do solo concerts. British record producer Norrie Paramor discovered Culverwell and signed him to Polydor Records. Polydor released his first album Where is the Love.
In 1973, Andrae Crouch introduced Culverwell to Hal Spencer, president of Manna Records. He would go on to record Andrew and Born Again for the label.
In 2012, much of Culverwell's early discography was re-released on CD through Chalosand 7 Records, including Take Another Look (1978), Everyday (1980), and Alive Again (1982).
