Northern Rivers based singer songwriter Andrea Soler grew up immersed in the Chanson tradition of French Folk music in a bohemian family of Spanish and French descent. Her music evokes the tradition of the troubadour with a beguiling joie de vivre taking the listener on a journey through the realms of indie folk, jazz, roots and world music. Recently returning from a successful twelve-week tour throughout Europe, Andrea performed on the UK festival circuit which included Rudolstadt (GER), Edinburgh Fringe Festival (UK) and Larmer Tree Festival (UK). She also ventured to new territories – Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, and also returning to her musical roots in Paris. Since the release of Andrea’s debut album ‘Earth On An Axis’ she has become a festival sweetheart, and honoured as "A Larmer Tree Festival favourite,(UK)". She has performed in Australia at the renowned Woodford Folk Festival, National Folk Festival, Mullum Music Festival to name a few, and has also won the ABC North Coast Artist of The Week, and more recently became a 2012 Music Oz Awards Finalist and took out 2012 'Female Vocals' and 'Adult Contemporary Songwriter' categories at The 2012 North Coast Music Industry Awards in Australia. Whether it’s an intimate solo show or a packed out festival, Andrea exudes a warmth and charm that quickly envelops an audience – she has an uncanny ability to connect with people through music on a very genuine and intimate level.
