ABOUT AMY: amyspeace.com
“What Amy Speace says – what she sings – she says with a confluence of poetry and honesty, of emotional specificity.”- Jon Pareles, New York Times
“Let’s make it clear from the outset —Amy Speace is among the best singer-songwriters America has produced in the last 10 years.” — Goldmine (Lee Zimmerman)
Heralded by Rolling Stone, The New York Times, Billboard Magazine, and NPR’s “Weekend Edition,” Amy Speace was discovered by Judy Collins, who signed her to her record label and has recorded her songs.
She’s the 2020 winner of the AMA UK’s International Song of the Year. “The Blue Rock Session,” her 10 th solo album, was released in December 2025 and reached #1 immediately on the Folk Radio Charts. It is a truly solo acoustic project Amy recorded in 3 hours at The Blue Rock Studio during a writer’s retreat there. Her 2024 release, “The American Dream,” became the #1 record, and the title track was named the #1 song in the FAI Radio Charts for its first month out.
She has been featured on NPR’s “Weekend Edition” and in a segment for “Marketplace.” Craig Havighurst of Nashville’s WMOT radio calls her “Sublime and inimitable…Speace has been one of [Nashville’s] premier folk artists of the last decade.” Amy has played many festivals around the world, including the Rocky Mountain Folks Festival, Philadelphia Folk Festival, Glastonbury Music Festival, and legacy stages like The Grand Ole Opry and The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. She is a favorite of “Mountain Stage Radio.”
A well-respected writer, she’s had essays published in The New York Times, No Depression, Working Mother Magazine, Sandalon.com, and leads workshops in songwriting and performance. Her forthcoming debut poetry collection will be published by Red Hen Press on September 1, 2026. She holds an MFA in poetry from Spalding University and is a professor of creative writing at Cumberland University.
