Have you asked yourself lately if your goals and desires are consistent with what you actually desire in this world? Do you wonder if there is deeper meaning and context required to realize the most ambitious of goals?


Enter Andrew Allen! Andrew is a Canadian singer-songwriter that currently resides in our beautiful small city of Vernon. He has carved out a storied and diverse career in the music industry that has spanned well over a decade in length (and growing!). Andrew's song "I Wanna Be Your Christmas" was his first hit, cracking the top 10 in Canada in 2009. Andrew then released his biggest single entitled "Loving You Tonight" in 2010 that sold over 100,000 copies worldwide during his stint with Epic Records. With many more singles since then, Andrew has had the pleasure of performing with some of the worlds biggest artists such as Bruno Mars, One Republic, Carly Rae Jepson, Barenaked Ladies, Train... and many more.


Andrew takes us on an unfettered journey into the many aspects of the music industry, led by his own experience and perspectives. We delve into the difference between performers and songwriters. We explore the sometimes ruthless components of the music world. We are immersed in the wisdom that comes from years of balancing a growing family and a burgeoning career. We dive into the many transitions that Andrew has undergone during his storied love-affair with music.


Beyond all that, we're educated on the importance of why fame and fortune should only be secondary goals in whatever you pursue.. and that love, meaning and dedication are real pillars to enduring ambition.
