Andrew Vickers is a composer and music educator based in Mill Valley, California. His string quartet The Color Quartet was a finalist for The American Prize in Composition, and Stephen Smoliar of the San Francisco Examiner has described his music as taking on "the infinite context that surrounds the individual." His work spans the concert hall and commercial media — commissions from One Found Sound, scores for several episodes of NPR's Snap Judgment, and music for brands including Hims and Sunski. Andrew holds an M.M. in composition from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where he studied with David Garner, and teaches piano, theory, orchestra, and composition in Marin County.
