College, has produced both ticketed and free
outdoor concerts in Salem. He is a current member

booker and bartender at In a Pig’s Eye Restaurant

and a social worker in the community. She thrives

Andy Goldman's roots are in Texas, but he's
been a Salem (and sometimes Marblehead)
resident for the past 23 years. He is a passionate
music lover and supporter of the local scene,
wishing he could actually play or sing, but perfectly
fine with enjoying all those who can. He is a graphic
artist by trade, an occasional multi-media artist for
pleasure, and he loves to travel the world exploring,
meeting people and listening to music. On most any
night, you will find Andy in some music club on the
North Shore or in Boston/Cambridge socializing with
friends and listening to the great performers our
region has to offer. His tastes run the gamut, with
opera and monastic chanting maybe being the only
genres he can’t take for too long.
