Andrew Nolte is a solo artist based out of the legendary Austin, TX music scene. His music has roots in rock and jazz, with some pop inflections and a balladeering direction. Nolte’s unique sound has been labeled as “orchestral pop”, due to the prominent use of strings and woodwinds in his music.

Andrew has worked in rock, jazz, folk, cabaret, R&B, soul, country, cumbia, afrobeat, and pop projects on the stage and in the studio since 1997. Back in 2005 he moved to Austin, TX to pursue a career in music full time. He’s also composed music for several local student film scores and podcast, in addition to his work in musical theater. He was a performer in the critically acclaimed Andrea Ariel Dance Theatre piece, “The Bowie Project”. Then in June of 2018 he composed the music and performed in her show, “Locked In”.
