Bright Series: Andrea von Kampen Trio

Intimate Songs • Lyrical Guitar • Thoughtful Storytelling

Described by The New York Times as “a fine singer with guitar work reminiscent of the cult hero Nick Drake,” Andrea von Kampen is a songwriter of rare subtlety—an artist whose music invites deep listening, reflection, and connection.

Her songs are intimate and introspective, guided by graceful melodies and a calm, expressive voice that feels both timeless and immediate. After a series of well-received EPs, von Kampen released her full-length debut Old Country in 2019, followed by That Spell (2021) on Fantasy Records. In 2022, she made her acting debut in the independent film A Chance Encounter, starring in the film and writing and recording its soundtrack, also released via Fantasy Records.

Her most recent studio album, Sister Moon (2024), marks a new chapter. Inspired by the writing of Richard Powers, the album explores climate change, the interconnectedness of nature, and our place within it—songs that feel contemplative, urgent, and quietly powerful. Von Kampen’s work consistently bridges the personal and the political, the inward gaze and the wider world.

A seasoned and compelling live performer, Andrea von Kampen has shared the stage with artists including The Tallest Man on Earth, Trampled by Turtles, Watchhouse, Punch Brothers, The Wood Brothers, Bonny Light Horseman, and Leif Vollebekk. She has appeared at renowned festivals such as the Newport Folk Festival and Rocky Mountain Folks Festival, and her music has reached listeners around the globe, amassing more than 55 million streams on Spotify.

Looking ahead, von Kampen is preparing to release a protest EP later this year—an urgent collection of songs confronting the reemergence of hateful rhetoric in American politics, speaking truth to power, and calling for justice and solidarity.
