Pureblend is based out of Nelson B.C. Canada. Their original music fuses many styles and influences including rock, pop, jam band, reggae, funk and electronic. Their compositions and jams deliver a fresh mash-up of talented musicianship and song writing, from poppy laid-back tunes with beautiful harmonies to psychedelic explorations of the universe.

pureblend was founded by Guitarist, Singer/Songwriter Andrew Cook. He discovered his mother's Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix albums at a young age, and has been hooked on music ever since.

His first instrument was the Cello, studying under a Toronto Symphony Cellist. As a teenager, He taught himself how to play the guitar, emulating guitarists from Neil Young to Angus Young.
