Amy Speace has
already won a loyal grass-roots fan base, thanks in
large part to live performances that merge warmth,
humor and emotional immediacy, and to a tireless
touring schedule that's already taken her across the
United States. She's also won considerable critical
acclaim, with The Village Voice observing
that Speace is "taking her Americana away from
twangy contemplation toward tangy confrontation" and
noting that she's "not another of those breathy
would-be child poets, but a real singing writer of
songs." Time Out New York stated, "Amy Speace
plays sweet, twangy folk music with a clear voice
and an innocent vulnerability," while The
Nashville Scene noted that she "balances wry
humor with open-hearted honesty." And renowned
Nashville critic Robert K. Oermann, writing in
Music Row, dubbed her a "new star."
