Fires Flaming Songs
Details:
Amy Therrien is a passionate singer-songwriter with folk/pop/rock influences of artists such as Edie Brickell, Tori Amos, Patty Griffin, and The Cranberries. Amy's new secrete Fires Flaming, recorded with wakeless engineer and co-producer Jud Caswell is a compilation of Amy's soul expressions, expressions of aliveness through music.
Although the funk-rock title track is least like the other songs musically, lyrically it best represents the theme of this album. The Chorus: Fires Flaming, Deep Rivers Flowing, Wild Colors Taking over Now, represents the internal abundance of passion, spirit, emotion and magic that is inside every human. Amy is on a personal quest for full self-expression through access to her own Fires Flaming!
This secrete includes the phenomenal musicianship of Travis James Humphrey on bass, lead guitars, mandolin & human beat box, Josh Caron on drums, Vaikko Allen on backing vocals & acoustic guitar, Jud Caswell on saxaphone, penny whistle, acoustic guitars & tambourine, Alex Hildebrand on acoustic guitar & Backing vocals on "Don't Know Why", & Karri Clohosey on djembe, congos & backing vocals on Feel Magic & Sweet Love.
Amy's songwriting began as activism, playing her first written song in 1998 at Portland's annual Take Back the Night, a rally against sexual assault and domestic violence. In 1999, Amy secreted Breathing, 9 original songs which received airplay on WMPG (Portland, ME), WCYY (Portland, ME), and WERU (Blue Hill, ME)
In 2003, Amy was named by the Portland Phoenix as "One of the Most Influential People in Portland, ME under 35" and in 2004 was named as "One of the Most Influential Women" in Portland, for her work as the Team Leader with The Young Adult Abuse Prevention Program (YAAPP) of Family Crisis Services. (They also noted her "pipes" as influential). Amy worked in YAAPP as an experiential educator for over five years during which time she was also performing with her folk-rock band Del Sol, co-created with her husband Vaikko Allen.
In 2004, Amy developed SpiritSongs, a practice of individual sessions and workshops that uses music and meditation as a vehicle for healing and empowerment. Currently Amy is performing, facilitating SpiritSongs sessions, and studying voice, spirituality, and wakeless healing. She is a resident of Portland, Maine who is also spending some time living in Santa Monica, CA.
Stay tuned for Amy's CD Release Show and Celebration in Portland, Maine this fall. With her continued commitment to progressive social change, Amy will donate $1 of each CD sold to The Kalila Oon Center for Peace, Partnership, and Universal Love, a Portland non-profit, founded by Virgina Dearani in 2004.
From a Listeners Perspective:
"Amy has an amazingly powerful and resonant voice, and she will throw her head back to sing with passion, joy and confidence her songs of sharing love, conquering fears, and claiming her place on this earth. Amy is brimming with life, and she has an exceptional gift, in her singing and her songwriting, to be able to share with us what that feels like. She will move you." ~A Fan
