Andreas
Charming, intuitive and wise for his age singer, rapper and songwriter , the now twenty three year old, Christopher "Andreas" Carrion, creates thought provoking and relatable music that gives off the impression that every song was based off every fan’s own life encounters. While being praised for his “unique tone,” “stupendous instrumental selection,” and his “harmonious, smooth flow” as quoted by listeners worldwide he also respectfully and admirably distances himself from the common “Hip-Hop and R&B stereotypes,” by avoiding saturated topics, not degrading others and using no profanity, this is what exactly proves how Andreas works hard to put his own spin on each song whether it’s about friendship, love, life or any other situation the everyday young adult goes through, the evidence is there that he has been nothing short of “spot-on” with any song venue he takes on and shares. Andreas began investing his life into music during his early teenage years age and has been involved in a small but blossoming and upcoming music scene in Nashua, New Hampshire which is just outside the city of Boston, since 2011. There is no question that 2013 showed the beginning of how much Andreas has to offer and that his music has been doing what is was supposed to be. Andreas was contacted then became a featured artist on the popular hip-hop and online based website, WWS Magazine, for his fan favorite single “Word Out” and furthermore secured radio play on college radio stations, and Atlanta based FM radio station “Pharaoshus,” with the release of his most successful song yet, “Make That Body Sing” which brought in top tier fans and created more music outlets for the rising artist. He has since accepted and excelled in his opportunities as an opening artist for Rob Base, best known for his hit single, “It Takes Two,” Kaya Jones, (formally of The PussyCat Dolls) and PlayBoy Bunny “DJ Brit Star” where he brought his own crowds of fans ranging from fifty to a hundred plus. In April of 2015, Andreas was surprisingly chosen to perform in the Battle of The Bands Global Contest at The Hard Rock Cafe in Boston where he was not just the only solo artist performing but the only hip-hop artist as well. He secured first place victories in the first round with the help of his full engaging crowd but for his voice and stage presence as well. Andreas fell to second in the final rounds but still marked it as a victory due to all the new fans gained, and the tremendous feedback and experience acquired during this tour. However, along with his stellar performances Andreas has solely reached milestones and accomplishments that validates just how dedicated he is to his career. Andreas teamed up with the “Grammy Nominated," SureFire Creative Studios in February 2014 and together they have sky rocketed Andreas’s career with professional quality music releases and networking avenues. 2015’s success showed why 2016 presents even more promise with releases of the hit single, “Validation” and fan favorites like “City Lights” and “No Clue.” Nonetheless there is nothing this humble and level headed artist will not allow himself to achieve. Andreas is often quoted for saying, “If they can do it, Why can’t I?” And that is the exact type of attitude that has presented the soon to be major artist, many achievements and opportunities that have benefited his career in which will only continue to be the driving force that will continue to let Andreas, thrive in the music industry.
