According to his website, Andrew became a practising NHS dentist when he was 24 in North London where he loved the community feeling that comes from continued patient care, but he put his dentistry career on hold to concentrate on his passion for music. Over the past 10 years as a dentist, Andrew fed his musical ambitions by using his holidays and spare time to sing in West-End choruses and amateur opera. His work included a tour with Cameron Mackintosh's production of Les Misérables in 1999 and Bill Kenwright's Whistle Down the Wind in 2002. His debut album Andrew Bain Presents Modern Classics will be released in November 2008. The album features covers of Snow Patrol's "Chasing Cars", Abba's "The Winner Takes It All" and Aerosmith's "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" sung in an operatic style.
