Andrea Iglar
Saxophone, Vocals
“[Dave] crosses over into jazz, which gives his daughter Andrea Iglar a chance to display her sizzling alto, tenor and soprano sax playing.”
–CD Review, Beaver County Times/Allegheny Times, 2006
Bio
Andrea joined the band in fall 2003 as Dave’s first-ever saxophone player. Previously, she played and recorded with musicians and bands in Kent, OH and Seattle, WA.
In fourth grade, Andrea chose alto sax as her band instrument. She played in school bands then kept her beat-up Bundy in a closet until after college, when her Music Chromosome really kicked in (her dad inherited the same chromosome, an extra one passed down Iglar-to-Iglar). Now she can’t stop gigging. She won’t say where she got her lungpower.

Favorite Saxophone Movie Quote
"You don't want me, Sugar. I'm a liar and a phony, a saxophone player--one of those no-goodniks you keep running away from."
