Andrew Renfroe, influenced by epic jazz guitar players like Wes Montgomery and now making waves in the New York jazz scene, Andrew is a recent graduate of the Jackie McLean Institute and Betty Carter’s Jazz Ahead Program. Andrew already has playing credits on Braxton Cook’s Somewhere in Between, Josh Bruneau’s Bright Idea, Jovan Alexandre’s Collective Consciousness, and Luke Sellick’s Alchemist album.
