May 22, 2025January Lanterns lit up our Ceremony! (& cocktail hour)
Kristen and Andrew of January Lanterns were the perfect sound for our whimsical ceremony! They both sing beautifully and harmonize magic. With their voices and Andrew’s guitar playing they can make any songs you pick into a seamless folk playlist.
Guests thought they were an absolute highlight of our wedding day, and loved listening to them continue during cocktail hour.
On top of being an incredibly talented band JL are thoughtful, kind, and completely professional.
What really stood out to us was their respect for the significance of the day. They treated every moment with care and intention, and went above and beyond.
With so many moving pieces on a wedding day, it’s a relief when something just works effortlessly, and January Lanterns were exactly that. They were one of the few things we didn’t have to worry about at all. I can’t recommend them highly enough!

July 2, 2024Wonderful Experience on every level
I cannot say enough good things about our experience with The January Lanterns. Leading up to our wedding they were communicative and helpful, and happy to add any songs we wanted, even a somewhat last minute request. At our wedding they were amazing! They brought everything they needed to our non traditional venue, and played beautifully for both our ceremony and reception. Everyone absolutely loved it, the songs were fun and easy to recognize, but their sound is unique and beautiful and people talked about it all night. I cannot recommend working with them enough, the level of service we got for such a reasonable price was just astounding!

About
The January Lanterns is an American Indie-Folk-Pop band that formally started in 2017 by husband and wife duo, Andrew and Kristen Camp. The two dynamic performers have been singing, writing and recording together since they met in 2006. The high school sweethearts create a palette of beautiful, yet raw truth in their lyrics and have bitter sweet harmonies that coalesce to create warm folk chord progressions infused with pop productions. They got top 12 in the 2024 Telluride Troubadour Songwriting Contest and they have big plans to release their second album in 2025! Stay Tuned. :)
Andrew and Kristen are a great addition to any special event! They bring a friendly, professional, and entertaining atmosphere and can be flexible with the specific needs of each event.
