The Songwriter Diaries10 Sep 2019

Andy Thomas

Welcome back to a new season of The Songwriter Diaries! This season holds within its episodes some of the best songwriters in Denver, CO. We will dive deep into mortality with our first guest Andy Thomas and his project Dust Heart.

After years of a folky, almost alt-country approach, he’s pulled a hard left turn to catchy hooks, snarling riffs, and big choruses. Don’t be alarmed, though – if die-hard fans are confused by the lack of pedal steel on the first go-round, they won’t even notice by the second listen when they’re singing along with their friends.

And that’s what it really comes down to. It’s not that the band has changed by getting better or tighter, or that Thomas has changed his songwriting approach, or even that he himself has changed. What Thomas wants to change now is his musical journey. He’s definitely been around, so why not give the unknown a shot?

If these two new songs should tell us anything, it’s that whatever Thomas has learned, he’s ready to share it with the world – and maybe have us sing some of it back to him.
