  • Bio

    Look out! With three EPs in their holster and a rapidly growing fanbase, this NYC-based act is armed and ready to blow you away. The first thing that will strike you about Amy Lynn and the Gunshow is Amy Lynn Zanetto's voice: this sassy frontwoman channels soul and gospel in a Joplin-meets-Etta James attack that will raise the hairs on your noggin. You'll then realize that her nine-piece band has your body swaying at its beck and call. Co-founder, arranger and saxophonist Alex Hamlin orchestrates a sound that fuses the rhythms of classic Stax records with brass power that the Godfather of Soul would be proud of. They might just hit you seventeen times with their parade of originals — including bluesy ballads, rock n' roll scorchers and catchy sixties-style pop ditties. Now don't say I didn't tell you so. — Joy Hanson ...... ...... .. .. New Yorker Amy Lynn's rich vocals, zany humor, and sassy playfulness have captured audiences worldwide with her dynamic performances. Whether it's having the honor to sing for our troops as a USO Liberty Bell or perform on the grand stage of Radio City Music Hall in front of thousands Amy Lynn has the ability to inspire and connect with her audiences. .. .. While touring in Europe with the musical Grease it was in Zurich, Switzerland where she met the talented musician Alex Hamlin. The two immediately had a connection that could not be ignored and began writing music together. Within a year's time they finished their debut EP and formed a 9-piece band now called the Gunshow. The Gunshow continues to play in highly reputable New York venues such as Bitter End, Canal Room, Mercury Lounge, and most recently they headlined at the Highline Ballroom. They will be making their European Debut with an 18-day tour in May 2010. .. .. Alex and Amy have a mission with their music. They strive to send the message of positivity, optimism, and hope. They have been working on their new LIVE EP which will be available in October. .. .. ..
