: "...When Andrews was eight years old, he sat in with an impressed Albert King at Antone’s blues club and by the time he hit puberty he’d played with such Texas blues greats as Long John Hunter, Grey Ghost, T.D. Bell, and Jimmie Vaughan. He subsequently recorded with Guitar Shorty, Jerry McCain, Manfred Mann’s Paul Jones, and others. For his sixth solo album, he enlists producer Carla Olson.... The title track shows Andrews’ facility without gratuitous showboating, and the whole set has an immediate, live feel....Covers of “Apricot Brandy” and “Burning of the Midnight Lamp” are welcome inclusions, and illustrates that Jake is indeed a mature artist.”
Billboard Magazine Cover
“Turning countless heads with electrifying guitar playing and soulful singing, Jake Andrews has been front and center of the Austin Scene for more than half of his 19 years. Steeped in the Texas blues tradition of Johnny Winter and Stevie Ray Vaughan, “Time to Burn’s” mix of guitar pyrotechnics, fiery vocals and powerful new songs confirms that Jake Andrews is already blazing new paths with the torch he’s been passed.”

"This is possibly the coolest guitar lesson on YouTube!!! Thank you Jake!"
"Great lesson, explained everything, made it simple, and it sounds awesome, Thanks!"
"Jake you are my favourite blues/blues-rock teacher on YT!"
"Very good lesson. I've used other YouTubers for this song and they didn't teach as much of the song, so starting out with you I had the main link down well and know I jam this song every time I pick up my guitar and this song."
"Now that is a blues masterclass. That guitar has such a thick but biting tone, love it."
"Best lesson I've seen on YouTube hands down stories and all."
"Jake you are channeling the spirit of the great Albert King with your amazing playing! I predict this video will become the benchmark on how to play this iconic blues tune! Love your stories of your run ins with these blues gods"
"Incredible! Love your style. Most lessons just focus on box 2. You really opened up the whole fretboard with this lesson. Some of these licks are pure killer! Never seen them in any other Albert King lesson. Thank you so much for sharing"
"The definition of a bad ass, swagger, and cool all rolled into one. He is bad and nationwide."
