Author Biography:

At 13 years old Nandi Bushell has already performed on some of the biggest stages in music, from Wembley Stadium and The O2 Arena in London to The Forum in Los Angeles. Nandi has been fortunate to have had some of the best mentors in the business, jamming with the likes of Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters and Nirvana), Lenny Kravitz, Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine), Matt Helders (Arctic Monkeys), Roger Taylor (Queen), Anderson Paak and Nile Rogers. In 2020, during the Covid pandemic, her drum battle with Dave Grohl got millions of views and worldwide coverage. Nandi also writes and records her own music. Andrea Stegmaier is is an illustrator and architect. She lives with her family in a tiny town-house in Stuttgart, a busy city in Germany. She draws a lot. She draws digital and traditional, straight lines and wonky lines, serious and funny things, animals and people, houses and plants, anything and everything. When she is not drawing, Andrea can be found in her little garden or exploring the world with her family. There is so much to see and learn when you look closely enough.
