ANDREA VON KAMPEN NEW ALBUM THAT SPELL OUT TODAY ON FANTASY RECORDS

Praise for Andrea von Kampen:   "an incredible voice and is a formidable songwriter." - What's Up Newport   "she chooses a genteel beauty over any commercial bombast; she chooses an even-handed sadness as a shine rather than polished overproduction." - The Alabama Take   "Aptly named, the flowing and gentle perpetual movement in singer-songwriter Andrea von Kampen’s “Water Flowing Downward” takes care in carrying its floating listener to the song’s completion. von Kampen’s blissful singing, sustained strings, and soft appearances from keyboard and piano alike make for a buoyant and radiant listening experience." - A Journal of Musical Things   "A serene and breezy piece that flows through you ears as Andrea’s mesmeric vocals immerses you into a buoyantly introspective melancholia." - Aupium on "Water Flowing Downward" FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Friday, August 6th, 2021 - Today Nebraska-based singer-songwriter Andrea von Kampen is releasing her new album That Spell via Fantasy Records.

Though she didn’t ultimately land the prize, she was named as one of the top ten entries, and in the process netted a whole new fanbase. Since then, she’s released EP’s, singles, a self-released debut LP and found great success with film and television placements due to her intimate and cinematic music.  The Nebraska-raised singer-songwriter is a formidable talent with her deeply felt folk-indebted sound and inquisitive, empathetic lyrics. Andrea excels at connecting the dots between personal experience and the world at large. Her journey so far has been a life immersed by music. The youngest of four children raised in a musical family, Andrea and her siblings all learned instruments as she started playing guitar at a young age. “Music was just what we did,” she remembers, and on That Spell, she continues the familial collaboration by bringing in her brother David to work on string arrangements and the album’s stunning production. Inspired by nature and often employing deep literary references in her work, von Kampen’s music is emotional and reflective. Entering That Spell is a walk in the woods during magic hour - a dream conjured by a supremely gifted singer-songwriter, one of the year’s most exciting new arrivals.   Tour Dates 8/14/21 - Omaha, NE @ The Slowdown 8/28 - Portsmouth, NH - Presscott Park Arts Festival^ 8/29 - Philadelphia, PA - City Winery 8/31/21 - New York, NY @ Rockwood Music Hall 9/1/21 - Washington D.C. @ DC9 9/2 - Boston, MA - The Sinclair % 9/3 - Woodstock, NY - Levon Helms Studio % 9/16/21 - Houston, TX @ The Heights Theater* 9/17/21 - Austin, TX @ Paramount Theatre* 9/18/21 - Dallas, TX @ The Kessler Theater* 9/19/21 - Oklahoma City, OK @ Tower Theatre* 9/20/21 - Tulsa, OK @ Cain’s Ballroom* 9/22/21 - St. Louis, MO @ The Pageant* 9/23/21 - Kansas City, MO @ Folly Theater* 9/29/21 - St. Paul, MN @ Turf Club % 9/30/21 - Berwyn, IL @ Fitzgerald’s % 10/1/21 - Stoughton, WI @ Stoughton Opera House % * Supporting The Wood Brothers ^ Supporting Bonny Light Horseman % Supporting Joe Pug
