Andy Shauf, Haley Heynderickx

Hailing from the tiny town of Caronport, Sask., Canadian singer-songwriter Andy Shauf makes quiet, deftly composed indie rock. He adorns airy, piano-driven tunes with profuse embellishments and thoughtful lyrics. Though the artist once admitted to Noisey that the “characters” in his songs are all fictitious, his deeply personal sentiments heard therein seem utterly real and true. In 2018, Shauf teamed up with a group of childhood friends to create a new band called Foxwarren, a similar project built on hushed melodies and ’70s soft-rock influences. Shauf performs on Sunday, February 10, at the Higher Ground Showcase Lounge in South Burlington. Haley Heynderickx opens.
