ABOUT:
Andy Bean is an Emmy-nominated songwriter, composer, and multi-instrumentalist specializing in music for animation.

He began his career as one half of the retro duo, The Two Man Gentlemen Band, first performing in New York city’s parks and subways before taking the act on the road for the better part of a decade. The duo’s irreverent songwriting and high-energy live performances won them a devoted (if modestly sized) following across the United States and Europe.

Through his work with the band, Andy landed his first composing gig scoring Disney’s Emmy-nominated animated series, Wander Over Yonder. His frantic banjo-driven sci-fi scores and heartfelt songwriting for the show earned him two Annie award nominations.

He is currently the songwriter and composer for Playdate with Winnie the Pooh, a series of musical shorts featuring younger versions of the beloved bear and his friends. Most recently before that, he was the composer and songwriter for all five seasons of Disney’s hit pre-school series, Puppy Dog Pals, composer and songwriter for Netflix’s Kid Cosmic, songwriter for Disney Jr’s Muppet Babies re-boot (for which he received his first Emmy nomination), and contributed songs to Disney’s DuckTales and Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures.

Andy lives in Los Angeles, CA with his wife and three daughters. When not holed up in his garage-studio writing music, he can be found plunking the banjo, lap steel, or mandolin with various traditional jazz and country bands around LA.
