Andrea Salomé is a 22 year-old singer/songwriter. Her music consists of soul-and pop elements and is currently performed acoustic. She started out in her musical life as a violinist and attended violin classes for 8 years. But when she discovered that singing was what she wanted to do most, she quit the violin and took singing lessons. Around the same time Andrea discovered and developed her talent for writing. This resulted in winning WriteNow! Amsterdam at the age of 16. Her passions for both singing and writing didn't come together in songwriting until she was 19. During a pop-music workshop at the Amsterdam conservatory she wrote her first popsong. Andrea started to teach herself the basics of guitar and piano to compose her own songs. She overcame her stagefright at singer/songwriter café Sappho. In 2008 Andrea expanded her solo-project and started working with her friend and conservatory graduate Ruben Welbedacht, who plays the music on 'Faraway Lover'. Andrea decided she wanted to attend a singer/songwriter competition to learn how a jury would value her songs. She entered the quarter finals of 'De grote prijs van Nederland' in the summer of 2009. Here she got useful critique that pointed out both the strong and the weak points in her work. Shortly after the competition, her guitarist chose to spent more time on his own project and stopped their musical cooperation. Andrea graduated artschool in 2009 and entered university that same year: music got silent for a while. In the period between breaking up with her guitarist and discovering a new one, she worked full-time as a countergirl in a supermarket to raise money for university where she's currently attending the philosophy course. She didn't stop writing songs or searching for new musicians to work with though. That continued search resulted in finding her new musical partner, guitarist and co-writer Frank de Boer, with whom she's currently recording new material.
