about

Shilo Andrews was born and raised in North West London where for the first 16 years of his life music was just a noise in the background.

After a year in the forest he moved to the town of Santa Rosa where he attended Santa Rosa Junior College. Majoring in Theater he eventually dropped every academic class he had in order to focus on acting and music. He started a hip-hop group "Live Long" and went into producing an album. Finishing college he decided a change was needed. Shilo:"It was either LA or New York. I'd been to LA once already and never New York so... I figured i'd try something new. The whole reason for the move was the music! I turned to my dad. He suggested rapping with my guita
