Andy Amyx is known around the world for his dazzling and thrilling style of comedy magic and illusions. His peers, such as Lance Burton, applaud his enhanced style, comedy and technique, which has fascinated many for years. His exceptional reputation in the magic industry has enabled his success.

Andy’s first exposure to magic was in 1978 when his uncle, an original “Bozo The Clown”, gave him a deck of playing cards. Andy was intrigued with what he could do with only a deck of cards. He became fascinated with magic and he was eager to learn more. After many years of performing for family, friends, schools, and local organizations, Andy began studying at the Chavez College of Magic in La Verne, California. There he achieved the Chavez Certificate of Prestidigitation. Andy continued to perfect his magic by creating his own style of music, manipulation, and original costume.

Soon he received his first award in magic from the International Brotherhood of Magicians; he took first place for his incredible stage act. This lead to other awards such as First Place at the Society of American Magicians for having the Best Manipulation Act and later was asked to perform at the world famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, California. Since his first performance at the Magic Castle, Andy has become one of the few favorites who regularly perform there.
