Amy Black is a Boston-based singer/songwriter with storytelling and Southern tradition in her blood. She burst onto the Boston scene a few short years ago, and in record time she and her band have become one of the most sought-after new acts in New England, sharing the stage with Chris Isaak, The Courtyard Hounds, Rodney Crowell, and Joe Ely, and playing to packed houses across the region. 

Amy’s powerful voice and presence are matched by the commanding range of her own writing.Through it all, the music glows with a mix of traditional acoustic instrumentation along with tasteful accents of electric guitar. Amy’s gift of conjuring flesh and blood characters and emotions leaves an indelible mark. “Real American roots music is born from adversity,” she says. “Loving, lying, drinking, dying, and going to heaven – not necessarily in that order.”
