Modern day Emmy Lou Harris, Amanda is an amazing artist, and deserves much more recognition than she gets ❤

The concert they put on that night was amazing. never miss the chance to see her perform live.

I love Amanda's fiddle playing and her voice. I want to try and learn the fiddle because of Amanda and all the emotions she coaxes out of it. I love this session so powerful and acoustic. I think Amanda's unique voice really shines in these typs of sessions. Her voice reminds me of Dolly Parton and Dolores O'Riordan for her vulnerability. Keep up the amazing music, Amanda. Great lyrics coupled with amazing musicianship.

Her album TILAM will sweep all the awards next year, and I hope she wears feathery outfits at all the shows.

On that dramatic song, Amanda's voice sounds like the best of Stevie Nicks and Dolly Parton blended perfectly.

Was sad to miss you at Shoals fest. As a Florence res I am so proud of this event. Ian blew my 93 year old aunt's roof off and busted her up. Had to go help. Next year. Loved Willow's part.
