Carnations formed in Manchester in January 2009 following the union of Andrew with the already established group of instrumentalists Phill, Don and the two Richards. Andrew's distinctive & recognisable voice immediately lent itself to the diverse range of sounds that the group was creating and Carnations have been honing their sound ever since.

Vibrations Magazine "Carnations are a band that pay homage to Manchester's rich musical heritage without feeling the need to rip it off or imitate it" M.E.N. Urban Life Magazine |
