First real job was washing glasses at the Rum Runner Club in Birmingham with the guys from Duran Duran, then being signed to MCA with my band “Cutting Edge” . Two charting singles , a few TV appearances but no TOP 🙁  . Played in bands ever since and either bass or keyboards.

Love cycling and am member of Coventry Olympic Group Sportive (COGS) but in 2022 was involved in a head on with a van, ending up here for a couple of weeks with a number of life threatening issues including a traumatic brain injury. That was then and I am making a decent recovery so I thought with the extra time on my hands these days I would like to give something back to the wonderful people at UHCW who surely kept me here. Music!

Abseiling down Coventry Cathedral on 16th March, raising funds for Myton Hospice. https://www.justgiving.com/page/andrew-foster-1703080084805?utm_medium=fundraising&utm_content=page%2Fandrew-foster-1703080084805&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=pfp-share
