September 5th, 2026: Interviews of Andrew Hoyt & The Mullins Brothers

During the 5:00pm hour we featured Andrew Hoyt, via phone! It was such a great interview as we found out that Andrew just moved from Des Moines to Chicago a year ago! He grew up with one brother, his father, who played drums and his mother. She loved music and always encouraged his career choices. He taught music in grades 1st through 5th at Westwood Elementary in Ankeny while also playing at gigs in and attending Des Moines. 3 years ago he decided to pursue his music career full time. We opened up with his EP, “Lucky Duck”. We had a great conversation and found out besides playing guitar, Andrew plays ukulele and drums. He is sponsored by a company in Hawaii called Ko Aloha and he is a regular visitor. He has recorded his music in Nashville, Colorado and Des Moines. The second song we played was “Good Morning Des Moines”, and ended with “Kind of Paradise” which was released last year.
