Amanda performs as a solo artist and with her band. Amanda does not claim a particular genre of music, and in doing so enjoys variety in her music and audiences. She has produced music drifting between folk, alt-pop/rock and Americana. With roots as a pianist her writing is thematically varied with an emphasis on melody and ballads wrapped in warm vocals. She’s released 7 albums. In 2016 she received a “Front Of Line” pass from The Voice. She continues to fully enjoy songwriting, releasing & performing original music in the beautiful Mississippi river valley. After college she began a more intentional look at returning to music after her nephew was diagnosed with leukemia and she was pulled into his struggle. Bryce asked her to sing as he passed away. That was her defining moment in her mind to open herself again to writing and performing. In 2010 she released a children's album inspired by him called, "Trains, Cars + A Trip To Mars." Soon after his father also passed away from a sudden brain aneurysm. Her recent album, “Please Dear Sun” was released in July of 2021. The album focuses on humanity’s struggle with real and imagined, physical and mental confinement, as a result of the pandemic in 2020. Amanda joined The Mid West Music Festival at its inception. In 2015 and in 2018, she performed on the first day of the Wisconsin music and art festival, Ashley for the Arts. In 2019, her band performed at Big River Theater, Red Wing Arts Festival, & She Rocks Festival.
