Andy Hawk & The Train Wreck Endings Andy Hawk & The Train Wreck Endings bios
Andy Hawk - vocals, rhythm guitar
Andy Hawk is a songwriter living in Hamilton, Virginia. He released four CDs of original material before bringing the whole band on board for “Tin Can Town”, their first release as The Train Wreck Endings. He plays some solo acoustic shows, but appears mainly with the Train Wreck Endings, a new band of miscreants who have begun peppering the people of Northern Virginia with a mix of the blues, classic rock, and originals. He was born in Pittsburgh and has lived in Boston, Baltimore, and Columbus (Ohio) before settling below the Mason-Dixon Line.
Chuck Bordelon - bass
Chuck came from Louisiana with a bass on his knee. He's adept at several instruments, and brings a great creative streak to the table. He also co-wrote a song on the new CD.
Steve DeVries – banjo, mandolin, harmonica
Steve has two solo albums of acoustic guitar instrumentals of his own, so he brings a musicality and versatility to the band that enhances the overall sound. Born and raised in Texas, he has recorded and toured for years. Steve has been a featured performer and master class instructor at numerous music festivals, including National Public Radio's "Americana Music Festival" in Nacogdoches, Winnsboro's "Folk Festival" and Tyler's "Mud Creek Music Festival", all in Texas. Steve has also been a three-time featured performer on NPR's Red River Radio show.
Branden Hickman - drums
Branden might be the kid of the group – all of 25, which is a baby in this collection of oldies and moldies - but he can play like Keith Moon or Ringo Starr, depending on the song. Great backbeat. Steady. Plus, he's single!
Gary Rudinsky - lead guitar
Ohio's favorite son (aside from John Glenn, all those presidents, and Woody Hayes) has been playing guitar for many years. Many years ago, Gary was an original member of the Human Beinz, the Youngstown band that had a minor hit in 1968 with “Nobody But Me”. He didn’t get to share in their quasi-celebrity because his parents wouldn’t allow him to go on tour because they said he was too young. He had to be replaced and missed the glory of the hit. He later worked for and cashed out of the Merry-Go-Round clothing chain. Anyone who knows Boogie Weinglass can't be all bad, can he?
• - We are a flexible group. We have the ability to be a 5-piece band, a 3-piece acoustic trio (acoustic guitar, bass, mandolin/harmonica), and I play solo acoustic shows as well. Also, we can play all covers, all originals, or a mixture, depending on the situation.
