Andrew Farriss AM is one of the most respected songwriters of his generation, with a career spanning over four decades. While globally revered as the co-founder and key songwriter for INXS—the legendary band that sold over 75 million records and garnered Grammy nominations, BRIT Awards, and ARIA Hall of Fame induction—Andrew has also carved out a distinguished path as a solo artist and dedicated countryman.
For the past 30 years, Andrew has lived and worked on a cattle and grain farm in New South Wales, a lifestyle that deeply informs his solo work. His 2021 self-titled debut album was met with critical acclaim, producing high-rotation radio hits like "Come Midnight" and the US Billboard charting "You Are My Rock." His storytelling prowess was further recognized with a Golden Guitar nomination for Heritage Song of the Year in 2022. In a major career milestone, Andrew made his Grand Ole Opry debut in 2024, sharing the stage with Keith Urban.
Andrew continues to evolve as an artist, with his much-anticipated new album, The Prospector, set for release in 2026. Beyond his own music, he remains active as a producer and mentor, having been inducted into the Australian Songwriters Hall of Fame and honored as a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for his significant contributions to the arts.
Splitting his time between Nashville and his farm near Tamworth, NSW, Andrew balances his global musical legacy with his life on the land. He shares his home with his wife Marlina and is a proud father to three grown children: Grace, Josephine, and Matthew.
