Anna Vogelzang believes in the power of songs. Since 2004, the Chicago-based multi-instrumentalist has independently released 7 award-winning albums and toured extensively throughout the US, opening for a wide range of acts from Gillian Welch to Sara Bareilles. Atwood Magazine says her songwriting is “beautifully visceral,” exuding “the kind of storytelling ability passed down through decades of folk tradition - it walks the line between the modern and the nostalgic.” Her voice has been described as “an ethereal, lucid thing” that “nets melodies like it’s catching monarchs.” A Madison local for over 8 years, Vogelzang returns to the Isthmus to celebrate the June 2025 release of her 8th LP, Afterglow. Recorded in Nashville, this indie folk collection dives into new sonic territory for Vogelzang, exploring who we become in the afterglow of life’s cosmic shifts.
