    .. .. ....About...... From an early age, Andrea Zonn was encouraged to explore her musical passions. The oldest child in a musical family, Zonn began to study the violin at age 5. She started fiddling at age 10, and traveled the contest circuit around the prairies of her native Illinois. At 14 she was accepted as a freshman violin major at the University of Illinois. Two years later, she transferred to Vanderbilt University in Nashville where she won numerous classical violin competitions and was awarded a fellowship to the prestigious Aspen Music Festival. That same year, she won the National Fiddle Championship in Winfield, KS... .. Her voice and fiddle have graced recordings by Vince Gill, Linda Ronstadt and Ann Savoy, Keb’ Mo, George Jones, T-Bone Burnett, Neil Diamond, Paul Brady, Amy Grant, Mickey Newbury, Tim O’Brien, Alison Krauss, Sam Bush, Darrell Scott and countless others. Some of the folks she’s toured with include Vince Gill, Lyle Lovett, Tony Trischka, Trisha Yearwood, Alison Brown, Jerry Douglas, and currently, James Taylor. Andrea's debut release, ..Love Goes On..,was met with critical acclaim, including being named one of 2003's Top 10 new artists in the “Country Music Critics’ Poll.”.... With an ardent sense of global awareness, Andrea co-produced ..Hands Across the Water: A Benefit for the Children of the Tsunami... As a response to the Asian tsunami of 2004, the project features collaborations between American folk artists and their Celtic counterparts, including John Prine, Rodney Crowell, Altan, Vince Gill, Lunasa, Cerys Matthews, Jackson Browne and a host of others. All proceeds from record sales are distributed to aid children affected by the devastation..... The upcoming year will include working on a new album, additional artist collaborations, and producing projects for other artists... .... ....Albums...... .......... ..iTunes.. .. .."This record and Andrea's voice remind me of the reasons why I love music.".. -- Vince Gill.... .."Finally, a glimpse into this remarkable person whose talent, beauty and friendship continue being some of my favorite things put on earth." ..-- Alison Krauss.... .."Zonn crafts an intelligent, beautifully played album that reveals new pleasures with each listening.".. -- Brian Mansfield, USA Today.... .. .......... ..iTunes.. .. .."American and Celtic musicians have been quietly building collaborative efforts for several years, from the Transatlantic Sessions disc to The Chieftains Down The Old Plank Road, and Hands Across The Water is a nifty and rewarding next step in the campaign.".. -- Jon Weisberger, No Depression...... ......
