Singer Andrew Austin will be making his Sudbury debut on March 13 at Laurentian University's Pub Down Under, in support of his new record, Just the Way I Feel. The concert will run from 4-8 p.m.

Austin was nominated in 2006 for "Live Band of the Year" at the Toronto Indie Music awards. In 2007, the young singer auditioned for Canadian Idol and was selected as a member of the Top 22. In the week of the Top 18, he became the first performer to ever play an instrument in a solo performance on the show.

Shortly after his time on Canadian Idol, Austin released his first solo EP,  the award-winning (2008 Album of the Year from International Magazine Awards) Just the Way I Feel. Throughout 2008, he toured across Canada and continues to play live all over the country as he prepares his next release, due later this year.

Austin has toured with legendary singer/songwriter Andy Kim and has worked and shared the stage with Canadian icons and contemporaries such as Ron Sexsmith, Ed Robertson and Steve Page (Barenaked Ladies), Danny Michel, Andy Stochansky, Blair Packham, Greg Neufeld, Adam Bailie, Alysha Brillinger, and Donovan Woods.

His music can be heard at http://www.myspace.com/andrewaustinsongs .
