Andy Dey, Alvah, is a composer, singer, instrumentalist, and market gardener with a perceptive sense of humor which he uses to good effect in his own compositions. He has been interested in traditional music and songs all his life and had early exposure to some of the giants of the School of Scottish Studies' contributors, Lordie Hay and Jimmy Macbeath, for example.
