"Now at 21, there is a remarkably mature soul in her youth. Her songs
of love and loss are sung with the conviction of someone twice her
age. And there's a bravery to how she lets her feelings spill from the
stage that many performers cannot muster. A word of warning to anyone
in the room, she will melt your heart." (Stephen Bailey, www.stephenbailey.com)

Amy Regan cannot remember her life without song. Her childhood was spent falling in love with Disney and Rogers & Hammerstein classics and singing inadvertantly everywhere she went. She began classical vocal training at age 11 and soon after began teaching herself piano. At age 13 she became infected with the need to write her own music, and began taking guitar lessons with the goal of singing and performing original material. She quickly became a prolific songwriter, performed in coffeehouses at age 15, and recorded her first album with an 8-track in her basement the same year. She has since then been dedicated to developing her craft as a singer, songwriter, and musician, taking influence from the lyrical integrity of folk musicians Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan, the classic melodic and harmonic beauty of songs by George Gershwin and Cole Porter, and the vocal prowess of Eva Cassidy and Ella Fitzgerald. Her interesting combination of influences creates a sound that is comforting in its sincerity and soothing in its natural beauty. As a recent Skidmore College grad, Amy Regan spent the past three and a half years frequenting Saratoga Springs venues such as Caffe Lena, Gaffney’s Starting Gate Lounge, and Lively Lucy’s Coffeehouse. Now in the NYC area, she is currently finishing an EP with Deerslayer Productions.

Amy,you're my favorite singer ever, but you keep sending me this karma spam. A "Hi Dirk, From Amy" would make my year much more than something that could tell me my karma. :-)
Thanks very much for your friendship Amy, and for the wonderful music!
When you get a chance, please stop by our music education "Space" and leave my students a back to school comment…words of encouragement, a lesson learned, favorite quote, poetry, or even advice for this school year.
