NEXT SHOW - Amy Speace
Nashville’s singer/songwriter Amy Speace has been heralded by Rolling Stone, Billboard Magazine and The New York Times and featured on NPR’s “All Things Considered.” She was discovered by Judy Collins while living in New York City and cutting her teeth in the folk clubs of lower Manhattan. Collins signed Amy immediately upon seeing her to Wildflower Records in 2006 and put out two of Amy’s first records. Amy will be joining Judy Collins at the Ryman Auditorium on Feb. 22, 2025 to celebrate her 85th birthday.
In 2009, Amy moved to Nashville, TN and began working with Thirty Tigers record label, releasing a more critically-acclaimed album every few years. In 2020, her song “Me and the Ghost of Charlemagne” was the winner of the Americana Music Association (UK) International Song of the Year. Her newest record, “The American Dream,” was out October 18th and proves to be her best record yet. Her records have been widely critically praised and have reached #1 on the Folk Music Charts. As well, 2013’s “How To Sleep in a Stormy Boat” was named as one of the Top 100 Records of the Last Century by Performing Songwriter Magazine.
