Andrea Schroeder is an exceptional phenomenon among German singers. A song poet whose voice is as captivating as her lyrical, often melancholic lyrics. With "Where The Wild Oceans End", the Berlin-based singer released her second album at the end of January 2014, which - just like her debut album "Blackbird" (2013) - caused a storm of enthusiasm among critics and critics alike: "A mix of folk and chanson, blues, rock and art song unites to a sensational debut" wrote Musikexpress, Radio Eins called it " "a dark album in a class of its own", Rolling Stone described her sophomore album as a "massive album full of drama and melancholy, somewhere between Leonard Cohen, Scott Walker, Nick Cave and Nico".
NAfter sold-out concerts a. o. with the Babelsberg Film Orchestra among others, the Berlin artist's new third album, "Void", will be released on August 27, 2016 on Glitterhouse Records, followed by an extensive tour in winter 2016. While "Where The Wild Oceans End" was still produced by Walkabouts mastermind Chris Eckman, he was replaced by Ulf Ivarsson (Thåström, Sivert Höyem), who produced "Void" in collaboration with Andrea Schroeder and Jesper Lehmkuhl. Victor Van Vugt is responsible for the mix and has already worked with exceptional artists such as Nick Cave, Sonic Youth, P.J. Harvey, Einstürzende Neubauten or Mick Harvey. Recorded in Berlin and Stockholm in spring 2016, "Void" also features special guest musicians such as Kristof Hahn (Swans) and Pelle Ossler (Ossler, Thåström, Sällskapet) alongside Andrea Schroeder's band, which consists of Jesper Lehmkuhl, Dave Allen, Catherine Graindorge, Mike Strauss and Maurizio Vitale.
