Amanda's Fans all over the World
" Amanda is one of the most talented female musicians I know. Her drive, sensitivity, focus an ambition are infectious. Her music sets a soundtrack to life and you will find yourself repeating her melodies and lyrics over and over again in your head. She translates her thoughts and perceptions so superbly into music."
-Stephanie Erdel (Musician), San Antonio, TX
I am so glad to have come across Amanda's music (through her ReverbNation page). Her songs are beautifully crafted...strong lyrics bolstered by sultry vocals; great arrangements supported by excellent musicianship. Although most of the songs are centered on acoustic guitars, she does a wonderful job adding variety via other instrumentation (piano, flute, horns and more). My favorites from her earlier work are "Corrupted" and "Take it on Faith" -- both of which are meaningful lyrically and memorable musically. On her newest release ("This Life"), I'm particularly fond of the title track, as well as "Wash Me" and "Undivided". Still, there are so many other wonderful choices among her collection of songs. Don't hesitate to listen...you won't be disappointed. Well done, Amanda!

How do I purchase your CD?
Yesterday the Seattle SSA training office played a cut during a break and I fell in love with your voice and the style of your music. How do I purchase a CD? Some of my favorite female artists (and the only ones who's CD's I have) are Joni Mitchell, Joan Armatrading and the Dixie Chicks.

The 4400/USA NETWORK and CDBaby!
Very very cool. I enjoyed reading your bio. I didn't know about all the other stuff you've done. We used to watch Ed a lot. Which episode were you in? 4400 looks like a great show in addition to having an awesome theme song. I was a big X-files fan...
I can't wait for my CD to arrive.

Dear Amanda,
Thank you for the email! I wanted to call you and let you know how nice it was working with you last Sunday. I really enjoyed hanging out & talking. I will listen to your CD, I'm sure I will love it.
Take care,
-Jeanne Rios-Ponsa,Los Angeles, CA.
I really like "The Great Plan" (I'll buy it when CD Baby has it back in stock) and saw that you're in the studio working on a new album.
Any chance you'll have the theme from The 4400 on the new CD? Do you play it live?
Email from Lee Stewart
If you haven't totally started to get tired of the requests, could you please send me the song you performed for the 4400 show. It is AWESOME and caused me to get your Great Plan CD. I think "Timeless" is along the same lines. Awesome!
Email from Elvis Gates
I absolutely adore your song on USA Network's "the 4400". Is there any way I can get a copy of it? I also listened to your sample tracks on cdbaby.com and they are equally lovely. Thank you for this beautiful music.

Hi Amanda!
My name is Annina Anton, and I found your site by looking for the theme song to The 4400 online. Here I’ve been hearing your voice on some of my favorite shows, and now I get to hear the “real you” on your albums! Can’t wait for the new one in September. I’ll definitely be buying it.

U have a promising career in the pocket. Please email me a copy of the MP3 for " A Place In Time", for "THE 4400". This song has me interested in all your other music..

Amanda, There is not a lot of female singers to chose from, out in that great big music world, at least none that have caught my attention in a while. I guess, not since The Cranes or The Heartthrobs. Anyway, if you ever find yourself in St. Louis performing, let me know.

Sorry, I forgot to tell you...I like Fairlon Suite the best on the cd. Thought you might like the feedback
-A new fan, Robin
Admitedly my tastes tend to be more goth/industrial but you have a lovely voice and, turns out, you are lovely too! Nice combination.
I am American, living in Sweden (just north of Stockholm). Feel free to give me a yell if you are heading up this way.

Thanks for the heads up. :-D I listened to the "previews" available on the website, and I love them! You're very talented. I'm putting an order in for a copy!
Sincerely,
Jen
Hi Amanda. I really enjoyed your CD. Are you available to play on Sept. 9th at 8:30 in a crircle?
Thanks.

Hey Amanda!
I hope that you can officially release "A Place In Time" - it's a great tune. In fact I enjoy all of your music - I look forward to getting your CD. When you're promoting the new album, you should stop by the Boston area -
there are hundreds of venues that feature singer/songwriters and acoustic music. It seems like a natural fit, although I don't know the size of your typical venue - you may outclass some of these places.
Also, I work on a local cable access show that features musical acts. If you're in the area and have free time, it would be great to bring you into the studio. The program can be viewed in 75,000 households in Somerville and we'd gladly give you a copy of your performance on DVD.
By the way, you have all sorts of errors on your website. Is there someone that maintains it for you? Should I bother listing the issues?
Keep up the great work!
-Lee,Somerville Community Access TV station (aka SCAT)
