Andrew Cane is a Canadian-born, Berlin-based guitarist, producer, and songwriter, renowned for his catchy rock riffs and ability to bring out the best in artists. Starting with the raw power of loud Marshall amps in the punk and rock scenes, Andrew has evolved alongside the music industry, now crafting polished productions in the quiet confines of the digital studio.
A pioneer in the German punk scene, Andrew spent six years as a guitarist and songwriter for the now-cult punk band Lustfinger, one of the first of its kind in Germany. He wrote six of the twelve tracks on their album "6", a landmark release in the pre-streaming era. His career reached new heights when his band was rebranded as Claudia Cane & Motherbone for a special project initiated by EMI Germany. They performed his rock ballad "Free"—written by Andrew—at the Eurovision Song Contest, reaching an audience of 10 million viewers. This milestone was followed by opening for AC/DC on their "Stiff Upper Lip" tour.
Andrew’s production and arrangement credits include co-producing a 12-song album with legendary drummer Curt Cress for his band Cane. He also produced, arranged, and mixed the 4-song debut EP "Big Man" (with three out of four songs achieving power rotation) and a 12-song album for the South African band Go Panic!, featuring frontman and songwriter Nic Olsen (now SonOfOld). Additionally, he produced, arranged, played all instruments, mixed, and mastered a 12-song album for Swedish singer-songwriter Kristina Hanses (now Kesti Hansette) and a 4-song EP for actress Josepha Grünberg from Berlin. His rediscovered 1998 recordings - «1996 Live at the Slaughterhouse» -mastered and released in 2020, further showcase his enduring creativity.
Andrew’s versatility extends to solo work and side projects like Boozycane and Zero3Zero. Inspired by the sounds of the '60s, '70s, and '90s, he continues to push creative boundaries, blending classic influences with modern innovation.
