In the bustling corridors of the corporate world, Andrew Macdonald navigated a successful career, traveling globally, climbing the corporate ladder, and reaping the rewards of a fast-paced business life. His journey, spanning nearly four decades, was marked by significant professional achievements, the challenges of raising a family, and the pursuit of academic excellence through a Masters in business and then a Doctorate in education. Yet, amidst the cacophony of corporate achievements and personal responsibilities, a quiet melody played continuously in his mind – a melody of unfulfilled musical aspirations.

He took up guitar lessons, a challenging endeavor that rekindled memories of his childhood music lessons. It wasn’t easy – far from the adage of ‘like riding a bike’ – but perseverance paid off. As he strummed more confidently and mastered chords, the possibility of setting his lyrics to music started becoming real.

His first album, aptly titled “To Have and To Hold,” was an exploration of lifelong love, inspired by his 34-year marriage. His venture into music continued to evolve, leading him into the Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) genre for his second album, “Heart, Soul, Mind & Strength, due out in 2024 and a third album titled “Purpose” planned for 2025

In just a year and a half, Macdonald has written over 20 songs, each marking a step in his ongoing artistic evolution. 

Andrew lives in Massachusetts, with his wife Diane of 34 years.   He is currently studying for his Master in Theology at the University of Notre Dame.
