Influences
Everything in life. But more specifically :) Joss Stone, Aretha, Tom Shepard, Kina Grannis. I'm really just inspired by everything. Whether I hear the song once, or a million times. The thing they all have in common is they all have soul. I can't stand dry music that has no heart, no expression.

Lets just say that I'm never gonna go up on stage and talk bout my "humps," I'm not the type to sing bout "my goodies." I'm about singin from experiences, heartbreak and life, things that inspire me and hopefully touch whoever listens. thanks to everyone that takes the time to listen.
Amanda Holmes grew up in a suburb of San Francisco. She spent her childhood heavily involved with music, dancing and gymnastics (twelve years of competitive gymnastics). She released her first album as a senior in high school, having spent three years producing and writing. She also co-produced and stared in two professionally shot music videos, one of which won Best Music Video Concept of the year, for the LA Music Awards.
The Los Angeles Music Awards boasts other accomplished alumni, including No Doubt, Sugar Ray and over many other artists who have gone on to secure record contracts. Amanda was accepted into USC's Thornton School of Music as a Music Industry major. Amanda has performed in Los Angles clubs, has appeared as an opening act for other signed artists and is coming up on her 2nd tour this May-June 2009.
Her second album, "From My Heart" was released March 2009. She had an amazing group of USC musicians perform on the album, and she produced it herself. This album was dedicated to the memory of Nicole Injayan, one of her childhood best friends that passed away in 2007. The album is filled with very personal, emotional songs about her experience with losing a friend. "Don't Leave Me Yet" is the single.
Amanda's 3rd album, "Savory Second" will be released May 2009. She teamed up with producer Kevin Rivers, along with majority of the same musicians from USC. This album is a throw back to motown, in the same vein as Amy Winehouse, Duffy, Adele. The lyrics of this album are basically a renewed appreciation for life. "Love it for what its worth." You can watch a video blog of the making of the album below:
