In an evening with Andrea Prichett and Friends, you can expect to be taken on something of a journey. From tender ballads to raucous political anthems, the performance moves between the personal and the political and sometimes both at the same time.

The rich resonance of Andrea's voice carries the message of her original lyrics on a versatile instrumental foundation provided by Deborah Hungerford on piano and keyboards, Mike Derrick on guitar, and Alexis Tsamoudakis on bass. The genre defying tunes range from blues, folk, rock and even jazz at times. While Andrea's influences include singer-songwriters (Patti Griffin, Tracy Chapman, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, etc), she also loves to dance and so the R&B/Motown sound is also woven into the mix.

Formerly of the Berkeley-based, nationally-known feminist folk trio Rebecca Riots, Andrea has released several albums. In recent times, Andrea released a solo album, The Frame, and continues to write and sing about the issues of the day. A natural storyteller and political activist, Andrea combines anecdotes with her carefully crafted songs to inspire and uplift her audiences. Her fans describe the experience of going to her shows as part political, part spiritual, part humorous and TOTALLY engaging!
