Known as the other vocal half of Sammie Hall of Fame band Xenophilia , Amy Anne went on to record a solo CD. Her debut album, Supergirl, features original songs and some favorite covers (mainly jazz standards), including a song written by Jason Mraz recorded as a tribute to this fabulous musician and friend.
Her credits with Xenophilia include winning three (2000, 2001, and 2003) Sacramento Area Music Awards (aka "Sammies") for Best Folk Band and winning the Sammie Hall of Fame award in 2004. She's had the pleasure of working with such artists as Xeno, Hence Phillips, Jackie Greene, Jason Mraz, Bill Mylar, and Holly Holt. Xenophilia also toured with the comedy troupe I Can't Believe It's Not Comedy, and got the pleasure of recording with John McCrea and Gabe Nelson of Cake on Xenophilia's album, Cafe of Love.
UPDATE: Amy Anne has reunited with Xeno and Hence Phillips (the co-writers of the Johnny Depp song, btw) to record a new album as Xenophilia! Keep checking the calendar for tour info!!!
