About Amy Speace

Possessing a commanding voice, a distinctive melodic sensibility and an uncanny knack for nailing complex emotions in song, AMY SPEACE makes music thats both illuminating and effortlessly accessible. Her forthcoming release, The Killer In Me, follows her 2006 breakthrough Songs for Bright Street. While Songs won her a loyal international fan base, The Killer In Me finds the NY-based artist forging into deeper, darker lyrical and musical terrain, delivering an album of startling intimacy and resonance.

About this user

"Land Like A Bird' marks the moment when Amy Speace should be regarded among the finest songwriters of her generation," writes The Bluegrass Special in a review of singer/songwriter Amy's latest release, Land Like A Bird (Thirty Tigers, 3/29/11). After a whirlwind few years, releasing three critically-acclaimed records on Judy Collins' Wildflower Records, tours with Ian "Mott the Hoople" Hunter, Nanci Griffith, Guy Clark and Collins, Speace uprooted herself (and her dog) from her longtime home in the NYC area and flew south, relocating to Nashville, TN in 2009. Bird is a record of migrations and transformation, and signals a new chapter for Speace. Moving away from her previous records with her longtime NYC band which brought a rock grit to her poetry, these new songs are emotional, cinematic and spare and are beautifully supported by producer Neilson Hubbard (Kim Richey, Mathew Ryan). "Speace sounds uncannily like a 21st Century Joan Baez, her timbred voice full of genuine emotions, wrote The Classic Rock Examiner. Her previous releases, "The Killer In Me" (2009) and "Songs For Bright Street" (2006) brought widespread critical acclaim and led USA Today to call her a "rising star."

After a decade of a life in the Manhattan theater world as an actress/playwright/director, Speace was a late-bloomer to songwriting, picking up the guitar and writing her first song just as she turned 30. Within a few years of playing NYC acoustic clubs, she was discovered by Judy Collins, who has recorded Amy's songs and brought her on tour. She has since performed on the mainstage at Rocky Mountain Folks Festival, The Kerrville Folk Festival, Philadelphia Folk Festival, Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, appeared on "Mountain Stage" radio show, been named "Songwriter of the Week" by American Songwriter Magazine and "Song of the Day" by NPR and continues to win fans across the US and Europe with her tireless touring schedule.
