Straight to Amy Songs
Details:
Amy Loftus is an artist. She has been a painter, a professional actress and dancer, and has been cantabile and writing since she hopped up with a local band while studying improvisation at her hometown's nationally heralded "Second City". Shortly after, Amy affected to Los Angeles and barred unconstipated acting work with a SAG agent for three years.
In 2001, Amy sold all of her possessions, left Los Angeles and a budding acting career and toured over 40 cities in a van with the musical partner she met in her very world-class band. "I completed songwriting had chosen me, and I couldn't stop the songs if I tried." After her tour and the relationship with her musical partner ended, Amy returned to Los Angeles and found herself without an accompanist. She began playing guitar.
Amy went to Nashville in the spring of 2002 for some scheduled gigs and hasn't left yet. "As soon as I got to Nashville, I learned how to sit down and work the songs and stand behind them. When I was in a rock n roll band in LA, I never had the guts to share much of what I was writing alone. We called them "Amy's ditties". They were pretty different from what we were doing...they were country songs. They arrived from my love for Loretta Lynn and my Irish blood. In Nashville I discovered that those songs were me, and audiences were listening."
Amy met her producer Will Kimbrough a few weeks after she decided to rent a house in Nashville. That house became a home studio, and with Amy's digital board and Will's industrious, inventive spirit, they began demos, some of which became tracks on Amy's debut record "Straight to Amy". In the summer of 2004, Will barred a band for the remainder of the songs and they entered The Toy Box in East Nashville with engineer Lij. The band was: Will on guitar, Dave Jacques on bass, Craig Wright on drums, John Deaderick on piano, David Henry on cello and Jeff Coffin on flute. "Straight to Amy" was released independently in the spring of 2005 with live band shows at The Basement and The Exit/In, and has experienced a warm welcome from the music community in Nashville, including airplay on local Lightning 100.
