From Amy: My mom asked me when i graduated high school if i wanted help buying a car or guitar. I sad without out blinking a guitar. I bought and acoustic Taylor guitar, i had my eye on and haven't looked back. Graduated college, a couple years ago and have been writing songs ever since. (That summer i knew i needed a car, so i saved and bought a 1983 Toyota corolla station wagon, aka " tan lightening" and drove it 900 miles from Abilene, Texas to Nashville. I paid $800 dollars for it) --------- Amys roots began in Boston, but soon her family moved on to the south. She grew up in Abilene, Texas and there began her journey into songwriting and touring. Combining the thoughtful depth of Boston and the distinctive Texas style, she engages audience through catchy melodies and lyrics that explore refreshing truths about life, love, and spirituality. On both guitar strings and piano keys, Amy engages audiences with original lyrics that go beyond typical lyrical terrain. She has a wide variety of influences ranges from Johnny Cash, Lucinda Williams, to Bonnie Raitt, Sheryl Crow, and more.

Recenlty, Amy released her third independent project entitled “Chasing Greenlights” (2007) The project was produced by Nathan Chapman who brought along Gabe Dixon and others to take the project to a new level. Amy has released two other independent albums: Solidity (January, 2003) and Here I Am (May, 2004). In 2008, Garrison Keilor's Prairie Home Companion named Amy " TOP 20 Songwriter under 30". In addition, one of Amys singles, Almighty God (Here I Am) was included in Provident Music Distributions 2004 PULSE CD project. Amy was cited on the project as one of the Emerging New Artists for 2005. Additionally, Rocketown Records invited Amy to record on its Gloria Christmas album in the fall of 2004 along side produced by Charlie Peacock and artist such as Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith were featured on the project. Amy currently resides in Nashville, TN and continues to tour and play music regionally and around the globe.

Hey girl...

I'm good...can't wait to get your tunes and here what you've been up to. I'm kind of dead in the water right now, trying to clean up some excess baggage which I see you have done, also.

It doesn't look like I will be done with the CD this year...I guess spring. It's very disappointing to have to wait, but He's in control.

I have a writer who is working on my book and that is promising.

Hey you stay sweet and beautiful and I'll hit you back soon when I get your CD.

Much love

Robin
