Andrea von Kampen

Andrea von Kampen is a Nebraska-based singer-songwriter whose music blends intimate storytelling, poetic lyricism, and warm acoustic arrangements. Rooted in the landscapes of the Great Plains, her songs explore connection-to the natural world, to one another, and to the quiet moments that shape us. With over 60 million Spotify streams, releases on Fantasy Records, and appearances at some of the most respected folk and Americana festivals, von Kampen has built a devoted global following.

Her national breakthrough came early, earning a Top 10 NPR Tiny Desk shout-out in 2016, which introduced her thoughtful songwriting to a wider audience. In 2019, she self-released her debut full-length album, Old Country, a collection of reflective folk songs that found success on Spotify and among indie bloggers, establishing her as an emerging voice in the contemporary folk scene.

Von Kampen's 2025 EP, Before I Buy a Gun, protests the resurgence of hateful rhetoric in American politics, offering an urgent yet hopeful collection of songs calling for justice, solidarity, and compassion.

Von Kampen has performed at renowned festivals including Newport Folk Festival, Rocky Mountain Folks Festival, and the 30A Songwriter Festival. She has toured with a wide range of acclaimed artists such as The Tallest Man on Earth, Punch Brothers, Trampled by Turtles, The Wood Brothers, Watchhouse (fka Mandolin Orange), Darlingside, Avi Kaplan, Leif Vollebekk, and Tall Heights.
