Andrea Carlson has a voice like golden honey! A sparkling and alluring spirit, she warms hearts everywhere with her own brand of retro jazz, swing, blues, and roots music. The easy popularity of her sound shows in her active and far reaching touring schedule - based in Philadelphia, Andrea has performed in a dozen states and as many countries, including six seasons at the Edinburgh (Scotland) Fringe Festival.
Leading her band (the Love Police!), comprised of top jazz musicians from Philadelphia, plus major talents from Chicago to Houston, France and Scotland, Andrea presents engaging arrangements of Great American Songbook, French Chanson, and her own original compositions.
Andrea has roots in Tennessee, California, Texas, and Illinois. While in college in Chicago, she began her career in small groups, and then with a big band that ultimately opened for the late great James Brown!
She earned her degree in Classical Guitar at the American Conservatory of Music, and is now on the faculty of Settlement Music School. Her vibrant fingerstyle guitar playing echoes hints of Django Reinhardt and Charlie Byrd. The result is all her own, spiced with ‘20s & ‘30s Jazz, classically inspired Latin, and Swing - a musical range spanning soft and delicate, sultry and blue, to bold and bright!
Jazz Bridge, an award-winning nonprofit dedicated to assisting Greater Philadelphia Metro area jazz and blues musicians and vocalists in times of crisis, sponsors these neighborhood concerts throughout the region to keep the sound of Philadelphia alive.
