- Musician
Andy Anderson began drumming and singing as a Hutt Valley teenager. Since then his diverse trans-Tasman performing career has included playing in rock bands, starring as Sweeney Todd and the Pirate King on-stage — plus more than 50 acting roles on-screen, often playing rogues and diamonds in the rough, in shows from Roche, Gloss and Marlin Bay, to The Sullivans.

Biography
Many an actor has scrawled ‘musician’ onto their CV, alongside the ability to ride horses and do a perfect French accent. But in Andy Anderson’s case, claims to sing and act are backed by solid evidence. Charisma, good looks and a sense of unforced naturalism have served Anderson well on-screen, thanks to a long roll-call of rogues — both likable (Marlin Bay, Roche, The Sullivans) and less so (Gloss, Gold).
