Soon after he also started writing music took guitar lessons and joined the music program at the high school in his hometown Härnösand in Sweden. Later his musical studies LED Andrée to the university in Piteå Sweden where he took classes to become a professional studio musician. To enhance his musical abilities he spent several months in the USA where he attended various courses at the Musicians Institute (GIT) in Los Angeles. During his stay in California Andrée met Fusion pioneer Jeff Lorber who invited him to lay down some guitar tracks for his quot;Galaxyquot; album (2012). Quite an honour for a young virtually unknown music student to be included in the album credits next to L.A. session cats like Michael Thompson Vinnie Colaiuta or Jimmy Haslip. Back in Sweden Andrée felt he was ready to make his dream come true and to start working on his own album. Andrée recruted a great line-up of Rock musicians from Sweden he either knew personally or who had impressed him with their previous work. Over the course of the months the recording debut of quot;THE THEANDER EXPRESSIONquot; began to take shape with Göran Edman (Street Talk Glory Y. Malmsteen) and the very promising newcomer Christian Hedgren sharing the lead vocals Herman Furin (Work Of Art Fergie Frederiksen) on drums Linus Abrahamson on bass and Michael Ottosson on keyboards. The result of the recording sessions which were completed by the mix of Per Ryberg (Street Talk Sven Larsson Bloodbound) and the mastering of Sören von Malmborg (Dan Reed The Rasmus) is nothing but spectacular proving that Andrée Theander is a very talented songwriter and a strikingly skilled guitar player who knows how to leave a lasting impression by combining his technical skills with a lot of feeling and an unmistakable sense for catchy melodies. Together with his band he delivers a pure AOR album spiced up with energetic licks and furious solos and occasionally leaning towards the more powerful side of 80s Westcoast all in all tailor-made for everyone who is into the high class AOR sounds of bands like Street Talk Toto Work Of Art Mecca and Lionville.
