Laramie

One of my favorite moments from recording my new record, If It All Goes South, was the night we recorded "A Mighty Thing". My band and I were recording live to tape in Nashville, and it was not only the last day of our recording session but the last 4 hours. The virtuosic, Sarah Jarosz showed up after flying home from a gig, she came straight to the studio from the airport, mandolin in hand. We popped her into an iso booth and all got into our positions and did about 7 takes. Then we picked our favorite, recorded her harmonies, and the song was ready to mix. It was an appropriate whirlwind recording experience to go along with the punkabilly nature of the music and lyrics for this song. 

The best line I have heard recently from a preacher, was at a funeral for a friend up in North Ga. The preacher was so excited about Jesus, and in his evangelizing about Jesus, he kept saying over and over, "Folks, you can’t beat that deal”. I grew up in the church and this was one of the most convincing moments I have ever experienced, the sheer charisma, the glory. But then in the afterglow, I thought of all my self loathing and years of healing I needed to get past the negative parts of my church life. But,  I will never lose hold of the positive things, and all the teachers that taught me about the true gospel of love in every aspect of my life. One thing I know for sure, fear is what keeps us apart, and this song is all about that too.

Amy Ray MVP LIVE

Birds Of A Feather

I wrote this song after the VA Tech shooting. 
This is the very rough demo I made on Garage Band, the song appeared on the record Didn't It Feel Kinder.

Who Sold The Gun (garage band Acoustic Demo)

The new single, “Tear It Down" from Amy Ray and her band, released 11.1.2020. Musically and lyrically inspired by Nina Simone and Billie Holiday, as well as the activism of Project Say Something and Black Lives Matter,  Amy Ray Band takes a deep dive into new musical territory to portray a relentless battle to evolve and become truly Anti-Racist."Tear It Down" tries to encapsulate the struggle and evolution of a die-hard white Southerner coming to terms with what she has been taught, and thought she loved about "The Old Confederacy", and the need to dismantle the historical symbols, songs,  and myths that perpetuate and nurture racism in the United States

Tear It Down

The new single, “Muscadine” was penned by Amy Ray and recorded with her band remotely in their respective homes. The song was produced by Brian Speiser, and mixed by Bobby Tis who both helped create Amy’s most recent country release, Holler. Bobby and Brian hail from the ranks of the Tedeschi Trucks Band. 
Amy sings this story of love and loss over a landscape of haunting melodic keyboard drones, mixed with acoustic guitar, dobro, pedal steel, and fiddle, laid over a heartbeat of rhythm and bass. Alt-Americana, North Carolinian, H.C. McEntire provides a chorus of backing vocals that are her own special flavor of sweet and devastating.
Amy says, “I wrote this song after one of my oldest dogs passed. Regardless of living deaf and blind for his last few years, he was always willing to go on adventures with me in the woods. He might run into a few trees along the way, or fall in a little ditch, but he always got up and carried on. I started the music from a riff on acoustic guitar, with some inspiration from Brent Cobb records, and the idea of simple parts that add up to capture a certain ache I was feeling. In the end, it’s a country tune about learning to love and receive love in the purest way, and to not be picky about life, but to stay the course with curiosity and gratitude.
