Amanda Henkel was born among the bayous of Louisiana where she was influenced at an early age by her father’s love of country music. But that passion was put on hold as she staked her claim to stardom in a different way.
While still in her teens, she embarked on an extensive international modeling career that took her around the globe, living life through the lenses of some of the world’s most famous fashion photographers. After attaining worldwide recognition, Amanda’s focus returned to her first TRUE love, music.
At the famed Capitol Studios on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles and under the masterful eyes and ears of accomplished producer/engineer Csaba Petocz (Cody McCarver, John Michael Montgomery, Ben Folds, Greenday), Amanda rekindled that childhood passion, pouring her heartfelt vocals into a series of songs that will mesmerize you the moment you experience them.
What you see and hear on this page represents the beginning of the next phase of what many call a “dream” career. It’s Amanda’s world, welcome to the neighborhood!

To the new friend We wish to express our gratitude for becoming you and a friend. It starts from knowing you. Thank you. All : friend's start with the family.
Heeeey, Amanda - it’s been a while :) - and how are you, hope things are good, are they?... Listen, I have a favor to ask you, could I? Since my picture won at the monthly level & Round 1, I got nominated for the LongHair Hawtie of the Year. Round 2 (Finals!) ends in a few days and... - was hoping for those 6 votes from you ;)
So... this is where you would cast a vote. Yeah, you do need to get accepted as a friend of www.MySpace.com/OfficialLongHairHawties before you can vote, but they’re nice girls (the hawtie folks), no harm whatsoever :)
I send you this wish… I wish you joy beyond compare, success in all you do. I wish your goals within your reach, friendships true and strong. I wish you gracious wisdom and forgiveness, when you're wrong. I wish you nights of wonderous rest. I wish you strength and courage, and persistence to be your best. And most of all, I wish for you more love than most will find, the grandest love in all the world, the everlasting kind! Wishing you blessings and love for you and your loved ones today and always!
Amanda, thanks so much for your kind words and for stopping by your Louisiana Street Team page! It was great to see you Saturday night, the twins are adorable! Please stop by again and take care!
