Andy Vine is a Welsh-born Canadian folk musician from Vancouver.
Andy's musical style is described as "maritime folk, old-time rock and Celtic". He released his first album "Making Waves" in 2005. One song from this album (“Woman of Labrador”) was inspired by Elizabeth Goudie, a pioneer in Labrador, Canada and has been included in the Great Canadian Songbook. In 2007 Andy wrote "Excuse Me Your Planet Is Burning".
Vine performs with his wife Danielle Arcand and with their sons Elgin and Simon.
