Twangy folk-rock-pop with an indie edge, "Amy's songs move beyond the traditional borders of acoustic music...a pixie version of early Tom Waits." (Jayson Buterin, ESP Magazine)
Bio / Background
"Undeniably earnest and commercially accessible" wrote Billboard Magazine about Amy Speace's 2002 solo debut Fable. Songs from this album won honors in the USA Songwriting Competition and The John Lennon Songwriting Contest and were featured in independent films. "Fable" has been gathering a grassroots buzz among AAA and college DJ's. Jim Graves of Fayetville, NC's WFSS says that "Fable" has "kickbutt lyrics and a feel that goes from hard-edged to tender."
NYC based Amy Speace moved to NYC after college to study acting and worked with The National Shakespeare Company for years before she even picked up a guitar, taught herself, and started putting her poetry to music and hitting NYC's open mics. Her first band, the now-defunct pop-folk duo Edith O., released their debut cd "Tattooed Queen" in 1997 to critical raves and attracted the attention of major labels. After the painful breakup of that project, Amy went on the road for a year with a theater company.

She returned to NYC with more than a handful of new material, put a new band together and made her debut as a solo artist in the clubs of NYC with a grittier edge in her powerful voice and songs that "move from gutsy to vulnerable on the same breath" (Raleigh's Spectator Magazine).
"Fable" was produced by John Abbey and includes a track produced by James Mastro (Health & Happiness Show, The Bongos). The 11 songs weave through rhythms of alt-country, acoustic folk, toe-tapping pop and even a hint of old-time jazz, while winding through stories of love lost and won. ESP Magazine recently wrote that Amy's songs move beyond the traditional borders of acoustic music...[she's] a pixie version of early Tom Waits."
