Independent Banker - April 2022 - 78
OUT OF OFFICE
Eric Andrews
started a jazz
quartet during
the pandemic.
Eric Andrews:
All that jazz
The chief credit officer of $1.4 billion-asset Gorham Savings Bank in
Gorham, Maine, has had a passion for drumming since the fourth grade.
Today, he has his own jazz quartet and plays in a 17-piece big band.
I have enjoyed playing with
several big bands over the years
since college, most recently with
the New Legacy Swing Band and
the Portland Jazz Orchestra.
People generally don't have the
opportunity to hear that style of
music very often nowadays, so
it's always fun to watch audiences
enjoying the music and dancing.
I developed an appreciation for
jazz at the University of Maine
while performing in Don Stratton's
20th Century Music Ensemble,
a 15-piece big band. While there,
I had the opportunity to perform
with visiting jazz greats like Marian
McPartland, Dizzy Gillespie, Al Cohn
and others.
I started my quartet in 2020,
during the COVID-19 pandemic,
as a way to bring socially distanced
music to my neighborhood via
outdoor concerts. It evolved into
my group performing year-round
now, primarily at a restaurant in
Ogunquit, Maine, as well as at private
functions and nonprofit fundraisers.
I hope to continue performing
jazz, in all its forms, even more
when I retire. Someday, I'd love to
be able to put together a national
and international tour with the
performance proceeds benefiting
nonprofit organizations.
