It's been an incredible year for Newcastle's Andrew Cushin.
The singer-songwriter from Heaton signed a record deal with the Strap Originals label, owned by Pete Doherty, and has performed at a run of major gigs across the country.
From supporting Sam Fender at This is Tomorrow festival, held at the city's Exhibition Park, to recording tracks at the Albion Rooms in Margate, it's been a non-stop year for the Geordie performer.
