Hey guys I know how to program in Java so I am wondering where I could get some info of how to get into android app production?
I have done nothing in Android, but I will direct you to my favourite YT channel for software development tutorials by Derek Banas.
Note: I call his stuff "soft dev" tutorials instead of "programming" tutorials because Derek teaches much more than just the language. He teaches you how to code.
He also provides a link to all the code he uses in the video description, so you can just grab his code and mess around with it yourself if you'd prefer.
Here is his playlist on Android app development.

i would look at the new bostons videos on youtube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL6gx4Cwl9DGBsvRxJJOzG4r4k_zLKrnxl they are great quality and he has a ton of videos on tons of different videos and has tons on java so you can learn that as well
I'm a learn-by-doing kind of guy, I'd recommend going through the example apps straight from Google. http://developer.android.com/samples/index.html
Android studio uses a netbeans like interface in its IDE only it has all the libraries for making a app for android built in and is easier to use then say porting over the android libraries into a IDE.
Search hyperSTV on YouTube. Guy does lots of tutorials
I am genuinely surprised to see that nobody is recommending Google's own official tutorial.
If you feel that you're comfortable enough with Java to move onto Android, then there's no better place than Google's tutorial/guide: https://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/index.html.
edit: I now see that someone actually had recommended it :P
