Details:
Amy Rude is a self-taught musician from Portland, Oregon and now living in Tucson, Arizona. Inspired by various themes such as the lost landscapes of working class communities, the spurious sexual escapades of teenagers, the limits of god and desire and the vast expectations of love—her music is firmly rooted in a gothic country/blues tradition and experiments with the fringe benefits of post-punk and blues influences. A big fan of entropy and mutable musicianship—her entourage of musician friends in Tucson adds to the fervor and flavor of her records.

To date Amy Rude has recorded three records: “Snakeheart” recorded with Tucson’s Golden Boots. In 2007 she co-produced “Heartbeast” with Kramer (Galaxie 500, Palace, Bongwater) with collaborators Jason Meruculief (Sera Cahoone, J. Tillis) and Naim Amor (Amor Bellam Duo).

Her latest record, “Can You Hear Me Crying Through the Walls?” was recorded at Waterworks in Tucson with Jim Waters (Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Built to Spill, …). Collaboraters include Vicki Brown on violin, Naim Amor on guitar and Thøger Lund (Giant Sand) on bass and Arthur Vint on drums. Using the instrumentation of autoharps, looped overdriven violin and two reverb laden electric guitars of Amor’s and Rude’s—the tone of the record evokes beautiful slop, bitter blues and rock-a-billy riffs that both emote and distort.

She currently completed a tour of Western Europe this fall and will be returning to tour in Italy, Switzerland and Germany Summer 2011. She’s shared stages with Jesse Sykes, Nicolai Dunger, Scout Niblett, the Slits, Howe Gelb and Kimya Dawson. Her rendition of “In Your School” by songwriter Kath Bloom was contributed to the compilation “Loving Takes This Course”. Her music also appears in the film “El Immigrante”.

“What makes Rude so loveable resides in the imperfection and Rude''s knack for melody and drawled delivery that makes every song ultimately hummable. Rude sounds somewhere between a female Will Oldham and a feminine early-nineties Stephen Malkmus with extreme back porch, lo-fi leanings.” (Venus)
