Andie Rathbone

Andrew "Andie" Rathbone (born 8 September 1969) is an English drummer and former member of the alternative rock band Mansun.

Rathbone grew up in Blacon, Chester and played in various local bands including "The Wandering Quatrains" and "Jonti" and "The DNA Cowboys".

Rathbone initially turned the band down due to commitments with "The DNA Cowboys" and because he thought they played "Britpop shite".

Also working as an Audi Car salesman at the time, he later had a change of heart after the band's bass player Stove King played him a demo of their new song "Wide Open Space".

[7][8] In 2008, Rathbone launched Rhythm Rehab, a short lived mobile drum teaching service covering Cheshire, Shropshire and North Wales.
