ANDREW W.K.
"I GET WET" – 10 YEARS OF PARTYING TOUR Performing his "I Get Wet" album in its entirety, with his full band! California-born, Michigan-bred Andrew W.K. began classical piano lessons at age four and moved on to playing in Detroit punk and metal bands, including the Pterodactyls. By age 17, W.K. was recording his own material. After moving to New York City a year later, his friends passed his demos on to various labels, including Bulb, who released W.K.'s debut EP, Girls Own Juice, in early 2000 and that fall's Party Til You Puke EP. The buzz around W.K. resulted in a gig opening for the Foo Fighters as well as deals with Island/Def Jam in the U.S. and Mercury in the U.K.; his first major-label release was 2001's anthemic Party Hard EP and was soon followed by his Iconic "I Get Wet" also released in 2001.
