Andrea von Kampen

Friday, February 13th, 2026 at 7:30 PM | 7th Street Loft

Deemed “a fine singer with guitar work reminiscent of the cult hero Nick Drake” by the New York Times, singer-songwriter, Andrea von Kampen is known for her captivating melodies and introspective storytelling. After releasing a handful of EPs, von Kampen released her independent debut album “Old Country” in 2019 and her sophomore album “That Spell” with Fantasy Records in 2021. The Lincoln native’s third full-length record, “Sister Moon”, was recorded in the winter of 2023 and focuses on themes of climate change, the connectedness of nature, and the stories of Richard Powers.
