ADDISON AGEN // SHORT BIO

Addison Agen is an Indie-Folk and Americana singer-songwriter best known as Season 13’s first runner-up on NBC’s The Voice.

Based out of Nashville, TN, Addison’s powerful and heart-wrenching voice welcomes listeners of all kinds to be grateful and self- reflective. Addison has shared the stage with artists such as Bob Seger, JOSEPH, Gordon Lightfoot, Brandy Clark, Peter Mulvey, Liz Longley, and May Erlewine while performing at top venues/events including The Winter Jam Tour, The Philadelphia Folk Festival, Nashville’s Famous Bluebird Café, The Ark, Caffe Lena and more. Her reflective music is woven together with themes of hopefulness, acceptance, and joy, and her new, full-length record released in summer 2025.

In late 2024, Addison Agen and Skye Peterson launched a new band called Fielder, an alternative-folk duo with songs that are spirited, heartfelt, and thoughtful. The full record released in August 2025.
