Bio
Since the release of her debut record, The Ribbon, Amanda Mora has been featured on public, community, and college radio stations throughout Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, California, New England, and Western Europe. She was selected as a finalist in the 2009 Mountain Stage New Folk Contest, and has shared the stage with Alejandro Escovedo, Eliza Gilkyson, Dale Watson, Slaid Cleaves, Sarah Jarosz, and many others. Mora has become known for her quick witted and openhearted shows with the dynamic cellist, Mollie Fischer. A renowned studio artist in Austin, TX, Fischer is a classically trained musician at the cutting edge of re-inventing cello's place in popular music. As a duet, Mora and Fischer deliver a curative dose of driving bluegrass adventure, a twist of irony and self deprecating humor, a sprinkle of sassy jazz, a few strange diminished chords and fantastical characters, some brokenhearted rockers, cinematic dramas, anthems of redemption and hope, and of course, your feel-good-toe-tapping love songs. With a lyrical and musical sensibility that ignites the imagination and assumes the listener's intelligence, they will captive your attention, and reward you with songs that continue to unfold, the deeper you listen. In 2010, Amanda Mora helped spearhead a visionary, zero emissions, bicycle/music tour across 12 countries of Western Europe. Amanda Mora was a lead organizer and one of five headlining acts that cycled over 6,000 miles and preformed over 100 shows at some of Europe's largest festivals as well as self organized, grassroots community events. The tour was collectively know as The Pleasant Revolution and featured an audience-driven 1200 Watt bicycle powered PA system. After nearly two years of careful crafting, the much anticipated sophomore record is here; Awaiting The Sound. Produced and recorded by Amanda Mora, this album explores new musical horizons while maintaining the same imaginative writing and colorful instrumentation that made her debut album, The Ribbon, so memorable. The brilliant cast of musicians include special guests include Eliza Gilkyson, Phoebe Hunt, John Inmon, Jonathan Doyle, Jill and Doc Jones, and many more. Find out more at www.amandamora.com -

Music speaks what cannot be expressed, southes the mind and gives it rest, heals the heart and makes it whole, flow from heaven to the soul.
