Bio / Background
Don Campau of LONELY WHISTLE writes "Amanda Thorpe. "Too Many Spirits" (CD) A jazzy, folky release from this excellent singer/songwriter with nice hooks and a rainy day feel."
From the artful storytelling of urban folk-rock to the pulsing rhythms and languid beauty of trip-hop, the music of English-born singer-songwriter Amanda Thorpe is never easy to pigeonhole (though it tends to lodge snugly in the subconscious). Amanda writes smart, often intensely personal songs whose roots in folk and jazz subtly challenge our expectations of familiar forms. Which is not surprising, considering Amanda's influences are as diverse as haunted British pop poet, Nick Drake, the sultry Francois Hardy, to guitar god and wordsmith Richard Thompson, the Velvet Underground and Blondie.
Amanda's EP entitled "Too Many Spirits," is a collection of seven deceptively simple folk-pop tunes that highlight her poetic sensibility and harmonies that one fan compared to "a choir beneath the sea.
↓ more ↓" Spirit's songs range in mood from the romantic exuberance of "Inside Out" to the sweet, jazzy melancholy of "Morning Way."
The EP established Amanda as a unique voice in the crowded cosmos of downtown performers and earned her the coveted "critic's pick" rating from Time Out, NY, the city's nightlife bible.
Anyone who listens to Jane Siberry, Joe Henry, Dido, or Beth Orton will love this.
