Stream/download "Cedar Street" here: https://tonetree.ffm.to/cedarstreet Cedar Street follows the story of two main characters in the book “Overstory” by Richard Powers. These characters find themselves in the same time and place concerned about the deforestation in North America so they travel out west together to live in the Mimas trees to prevent them from being cut down. Lyrics: She lived in a college town on Cedar Street A tree in the front yard that once covered the earth Wet from a shower, turns off the light Dead for a minute, then comes back to life She moved from that eastern town somewhere on Cedar Street The greater the number Harder the cry of Fire Inside If there was a problem Someone would have already screamed Fire Fire Fire on the inside She had a vision of, looming trees begged her to go out west save them all Picked up a man somewhere on the drive An Iowan who needed to feel alive Tied to the redwoods they cried for all of us The greater the number The harder the cry of Fire If there was a problem Someone would have already screamed Fire Fire Fire on the inside Subscribe to my YouTube channel to get notified with new content: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenYoutubeSubscribe Follow Andrea von Kampen: Official Website: http://andreavonkampen.com/ Instagram: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenInstagram Spotify: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenSpotify Apple Music: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenAppleMusic TikTok: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenTikTok

Stream/download "August" here: https://tonetree.ffm.to/august When late August arrives on the Great Plains, I am over the oppressive days of summer. And yet, in my 24 years of living here summer is only lasting longer and the winter snows come less often. This is not new news, but the personal nature of it compelled me to write a haunting lullaby about what our future generations will miss. Lyrics: Let’s ride our bikes down to 48th A drop in a pool that never permeates And I found rhubarb even if it’s late Find me something sweet and I’ll make it okay August in the heat Beneath a shady tree I hope our kids can feel the breeze All my dreams so free But tell me how to be In this late summer heat I’m scared of All the things they’ll miss, Decembers turning white The beauty of the forest the Ogalala still high The air was heavy even when it’s late The nighttime will come but the cool will stay away Subscribe to my YouTube channel to get notified with new content: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenYoutubeSubscribe Follow Andrea von Kampen: Official Website: http://andreavonkampen.com/ Instagram: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenInstagram Spotify: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenSpotify Apple Music: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenAppleMusic TikTok: https://found.ee/AndreavonKampenTikTok

"Juniper" by Andrea von Kampen. Stream or download here: https://tonetree.ffm.to/juniper The Juniper tree is a symbol of the "holy fool" in literature. This archetype is relaxed and silly but ultimately a truth-teller who works for the greater good. I wrote this song thinking of this type of character and what good they could do to combat the stressful environment we live in today.
