Andrew Lipinski

Andrew Lipinski is an American musician, Producer and songwriter. Current member of the bands Adam and Andrew, and Ratham Stone. He is an identical twin to Adam Lipinski. Born in Florida, grew up in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, Columbus Ohio, and Los Angeles California.
Adam and Andrew Lipinski, identical music-making twins currently living in Orlando, are anything but cookie-cutter copycats. Naturally competitive, they strive to make each component of their music stronger and better. Their songs benefit from this oneupsmanship. Their song, “Bang Bang,” was named the Song of the Year by www.SongwriterUniverse.com . ASCAP's Prestigious ASCAP PLUS AWARD and “Honorable mentions” by the largest music executives are some of many kudos they’ve racked up for their songs and/or performances.
It’s all about the songs for A vs A – their brand is their song strength.

== STYLE ==
Can’t nail it down. Their influences are wide, and their preferred style knows no boundaries. A vs A have lived in Pittsburgh and Columbus, drawing inspiration from those cities’ music scenes as well as from Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, country music, Broadway musicals, love lost or found, the thrill of a motocross race, the solitude of a pool or ocean swell, and the milieu of a mid-20’s creative lifestyle. VH1 Music has deemed them The Mary-Kate and Ashley of music. Their acoustic-based, arena-POP/ rock, singer- songwriter sound is a mix between OneRepublic, Imagine Dragons and Ed Sheeran.

A&A have released 8 Albums in the Last 3 years under the band name Ratham Stone. With many more songs to come!
== COMPETITIVE ==
 It’s always been this way for them, having started in their pre-teen years. They didn’t have a shy bone in their bodies. Whether performing in talent shows or jumping off tables to impress the babysitter, they loved entertaining. That thrill was taken to a new level when they started riding competitive motocross as teens. In fact, some of their best and most satisfying relationships had their beginnings on the Dirt Bike track. They write music that appeals to peers from all sections of their lives.
What’s next? Stay tuned! After finishing in the top 24 out of thousands of submissions in VH1’s Make A Band Famous competition in New York City early in June, these prolific and likeable dudes are always on the lookout for an exciting and energizing project to get their competitive creativity into overdrive.
