Biography

Motivational Speaker - Andy Abraham

Andy Abraham has already had the chance to prove to the nation that he's incredibly gifted. He won the hearts of over 9 million X-Factor viewers each week with his incredible vocal talents and endearing personality. The release of his first album The Impossible Dream made chart history, selling 176,689 copies in its first week and reaching platinum status.

The show enabled him to land a management deal with esteemed management and publishing company Global Talent Group (G4, Corinne Bailey Rae) and a well-deserved album deal with Sony BMG. "Getting the deal was incredible - a dream come true. It's everything I've been aiming towards," he smiles.

Andy discovered that he had a natural ability for singing from a young age, but it would be some time before the British public would discover just how much he had to offer. However, as he grew older his desire to sing grew stronger, and he soon found himself on stage in front of audiences of hundreds, taking part in singing competitions. "I used to go to the 291 club at the Hackney Empire. It was a big competition where you get up and sing in front of a crowd, and if you're bad they soon let you know!"

It was the tragic death of his best friend in 1998, which gave Andy the final push he needed to throw himself head-long into the world of music. Andy decided to take the plunge and go to Music College, so he quit his job as a printer and signed up to the Powerhouse in Acton. Andy's biggest supporters are his devoted wife Denise and his two children Jacob, nine, and Tara, eleven.

The making of his first album, The Impossible Dream was a truly defining moment as Andy was able to work with a 50 piece orchestra and producer extraordinaire Nigel Wright (Barbra Streisand, Madonna, Andrew Lloyd Webber). The first album certainly didn't disappoint fans with favourites from the live performances from X-Factor and fantastic original tracks. The album boasts the biggest sales for a No. 2 album in chart history. ‘The Unforgettable Tour’ (23rd Oct - 7th Nov 2006) saw Andy performing at 13 venues throughout the UK, culminating in a special performance at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall.

Andy came straight off stage to release his second album Soul Man, which takes Andy back to his roots and captures hits from inspirational legends including Stevie Wonder, The Temptations & Smokey Robinson. Andy's velvet toned voice sits effortlessly in the Motown genre and each song is filled with emotion and sincerity.

Andy is one of the UK's biggest and brightest talents and will fill every venue with performances straight from the heart.
