Andrew Winton

Andrew Winton (born February 1972, Perth) is an independent and solo Australian musician who combines acoustic guitar, lap slide, dobro and seven-string lap guitar/bass (the Wintonbeast), with hollers and stomp. Winton's sound has been likened to a cross between Ben Harper, Sting, Kelly-Joe Phelps and Harry Manx. Winton currently lives in Perth with Karen (his wife, manager and percussionist/vocalist) and their three children. Winton is a brother of the author Tim Winton and has a sister, Sharyn O'Neill, who is the current Director-General of the Western Australian Department of Education. Winton also works part-time as a high school chaplain in Perth.
