Andrew Hyatt grew up around country music and has always gravitated towards the songwriting style within the genre. Once he began writing as a solo artist, he noticed influences from his childhood coming through.
Hyatt’s list of musical influences is endless and goes from Loretta Lynn to Jay Z to Underoath.
“I’ve always loved music in so many genres. I love the heavy guitars and screaming as much as I love pedal steel and heartfelt smooth vocals,” he said.
Near the end of 2022, Hyatt released his album Four Good Years, which was recorded remotely.
“I think that record overall is my favourite selection of songs, I couldn’t pick even if I tried,” he said.
Hyatt had to take a hiatus in 2019 due to a vocal condition that required surgery. The road to recovery was long, but he came back better than ever and Four Good Years shows he’s stronger and more determined than ever. Recording the album was a great way to rebuild his confidence in his voice.
“I’m grateful I can make music that is authentically reflective of who I am and that’s always really rewarding,” he said.
Andrew Hyatt recently released his new EP L Is For. Hyatt’s team calls this the “divorce record” because it’s a collection of songs he wrote while processing all of the feelings that come with heartbreak and betrayal.
Andrew Hyatt is heading out on the Country Mixtape Tour with fellow Canadian country artists Tyler Joe Miller and Shawn Austin this spring!
“I’m looking forward to doing what I love with some of my favourite humans and getting to do it across Canada. I know the three of us love being on stage and it’s going to be fun collectively playing our songs,” said Hyatt.
At an Andrew Hyatt show fans can expect a mix of big-energy songs with heavy guitars and heartbreaking songs stripped down.
“I want people to hear music that meets them where they are in life, so I try and connect with as many people as I can during a show,” he said.
