About this user

Amelia grew up in Park Slope, Brooklyn in NYC to a creative international Australian & New Zealand family. A Suzuki trained classical singer and pianist, she has appeared at Carnegie Hall with Marvin Hamlisch and Paramount Theatre on Broadway with Ben Vereen. Armed with a very useful Biological Anthropology degree from Binghamton University, Amelia crashed into music scene at V2 Records (Moby, White Stripes) and Dubway Studios, a high profile recording facility in Manhattan. As an entrepreneur, she founded her own business, Give Music, writing personalised songs for any occasion.

Now living in London, Amelia pursues a full-time professional career in composition, working for Michael Nyman (The Piano) and writing music for the THAMES youth wind orchestra with the London Symphony Orchestra. Amelia has permeated the ever-growing festival scene in Europe as music coordinator for BritDoc08 and the East End Film Festival, liaising with David Arnold (James Bond) to submit original compositions for the featured Stereoscopic Time Lapse film installation. Most recently, Amelia performs original quirky ukulele songs throughout London at venues such as The Troubadour (Bob Dylan, Paul Simon) and was the featured artist for this summers Spitalfields Market Open Air Lunchtime Concert Series. Gaining popularity, Amelias kosher satire, Swine Flu, has become a Radio hit with live performances on Resonance 104.4fm and The Art Show on Xtreme East. In November, she travels to Qatar for 3 months to perform at the Pearl, a man-made island off the coast of Doha.

Undoubtedly, a core influence of Amelias piano music derives from an 11-year immobilizing fear of flying. Recurring themes of movement are imminent in her work and she often reflects on the trauma of change; torn between the familiar and the uncertainty of the future. When it comes to the ukulele, however, Amelia lightens up a bit. A charismatic performer, her effortlessly charming voice resonates on stage. With whimsical and quirky songs, Amelia gathers up lifes small moments and shares them with the world.
