Andrea Wolper

Born: January 16

Although vocalist, composer, and arranger ANDREA WOLPER started her professional career singing jazz standards, her eclectic tastes and multidisciplinary talents have led her to forge her own path. Her newest recording, WANDERLUST, is an apt title for her peregrinations down the byways of improvisatory vocal jazz.

Working frequently as both leader and side-person, Andrea is "an audacious artist [who] flouts genre limitations, singing songs for the love of it and delivering an inventive, thrilling, appealing musical vision.” One of the singers covered in The Jazz Singers: The Ultimate Guide (Yanow, Backbeat Books), she is “a superb singer” who “brings songs to life, whatever their source,” and “a terrific arranger, taking new paths rather than expected ones.” Cadence Magazine calls her songwriting "easily superior.”
