Биография

Just when you think Amy LaVere is at the top of her craft, it grows into something even more powerful. Her writing is original and timeless, making her well known among songwriters and critics alike. NPR’s Robert Siegel says she “specializes in lyrics that are more barbed than her sweet soprano prepares you for.” Amos Perinne of No Depression writes “Her songs have a level of detail comparable to a photo. LaVere has a knack for documenting simple moments and making them riveting. ”Her growing catalog of material and steady critical acclaim suggest a first-tier presence on the Americana and indie-folk circuits.” The Dean of American Rock Critics, Robert Chritgan, writes, "She's a cryptically homespun singer-songwriter with a good witch's soul." Her latest release ‘Painting Blue’ (2019) showcases her depth and creative storytelling masterfully, even receiving 4 out of 4 stars by Mojo Magazine. LaVere and Will Sexton are often on the road together. Will supports Amy’s songwriting and bass playing with guitar and backing vocals. Sometimes performing as a duo or featuring a full band, Amy’s Live performances are anything but predictable. She captivates her audiences and never fails to take them on a memorable journey. She has performed in venues as wide-ranging as St. Andrew’s Hall in London to Memphis’ famed dive bar Earnestine and Hazel’s and has been featured at festivals such as Bonnaroo and Beale Street Music Festival.
