Andrew McConathy (Drunken Hearts)

Over the last decade, Drunken Hearts have carved out their own place in the Country Americana landscape, blending the heart of folk, the soul of country, and the raw power of rock ‘n’ roll. Originally hailing from Louisiana and raised in Colorado, the band is led by singer-songwriter Andrew McConathy, whose storytelling lyrics and commanding stage presence have been the driving force behind their evolution over the years. In 2024, the group continues to push boundaries with a refined yet raw sound that reflects their journey from local Colorado stages to national recognition.

Formed in 2010, Andrew & his band have grown from a grassroots trio into a powerful act in the bluegrass and Country Americana sphere, known for their infectious live shows and genre-defying spirit. The sound is deeply rooted in the rugged landscapes of the American West, evoking both the solitude of wide-open plains and the grit of mountain towns, and their songs paint vivid pictures of life’s highs and lows, covering everything from love and heartbreak to resilience and redemption.

In addition to their musical achievements, the band is known for its commitment to their community and the environment. McConathy, also the founder of the Yarmony Music Festival, has used his platform to support sustainable practices and promote music as a force for bringing people together. The band’s connection to the land and its people is a constant theme in their music and in the lives they lead offstage.
