While growing up outside of Chicago, Andrea Veltri has never had a doubt in her mind that music was the path made for her. At the young age of 5, she received her very first guitar, and soon thereafter began taking lessons at 6 years old. When she was 8, she started performing in a punk/rock band as the lead vocalist and guitar.

 

Unfortunately, five years later the band dissolved, but that didn’t stop Andrea’s musical interest. Instead, it led her to country music and encouraged her to pursue a solo career. Since focusing on her writing and individuality, she has been performing at many venues and has also opened for a variety of artists such as Jana Kramer, Anna Nalick, and Jason Michael Carroll.

 

On November 16th, 2018, her first single “What I Know Now” was released. Since then, she has propelled herself into her music and writing and it’s reflected in her debut EP “Starting Over” which was released on October 22, 2021. These 7 songs show growth, honesty, and relatability by opening up about heartbreak in all forms. This EP marks a completely new chapter and shows that starting over can be done with grace.
