THE BiTS INTERVIEw: Andras Droppa



       András Droppa is a hugely talented guitar player, singer and

       songwriter who is really starting to find his feet in the music
       business.


       Following the release of his debut album, András took his

       unique brand of Hard Rock-Blues to 23 venues across the

       UK as part of his debut tour. He delivers a virtuoso ‘tour-de-

       force’ of in-your-face guitar driven music.


       Still in his early twenties, he is on a path to musical success.

       Ian McKenzie spoke to András at  his home in north Devon.



    AD:  Hello.

    BiTS:  András, is that you? It’s Ian McKenzie.

                                                                            BiTS:  And you, indeed. I’m so
                                                                            pleased to talk to you. Let me

                                                                            tell you what I want to do. I'd
                                                                            like to talk to you about your
                                                                            background, how you got into

                                                                            music  in  the  first  place,  and
                                                                            then tell me something about
                                                                            the album and the making of it

                                                                            and all the rest of it.

                                                                            AD:  That sounds pretty spot
    on to me. I'm not going to lie.


    BiTS:  Okay, well, let's make a start. Were you brought up in a home with music in
    it? Is that how you became interested in music?

    AD:  I mean, kind of. So neither of my parents or any of my family are musicians in

    the slightest, apart from my mum's brother who never played anything in his life
    until his 40th birthday when someone bought a bass guitar, and then he became
    absolutely obsessed with it. But basically, he was a proper metal head. We're talking

    early 80s, Motörhead, biker jacket, the whole shebang.  Apparently he took my mum
    to see AC/DC as a little girl, and my earliest memory is that one Christmas he gave
    both me and my sister an MP3 player. My sister's had a load of poppy crap on it. I

    don't know what she had, but mine had “The Best Of AC/DC”, “The Best Of Black
