Amy LaCour
I was born and raised in Seattle, Washington. I grew up listening to my dad's soul record collection. I think that the first songs I ever heard were Stevie Wonder's- a pretty great place to start. When I was young, my mom signed me up for piano lessons. I protested. I am glad that her will was stronger than mine.
I went to college in New York. I was less interested in college than I was in the creative vibe of the city. It was there that I really learned to sing. I joined bands, listened to all types of music, started to write songs.
Eventually, I decided to return to the west coast, this time to Los Angeles where I now live. Here, I started to perform solo and gave greater focus to songwriting. In 2007, I got the opportunity to record, and released my first EP, Bitter Suite. It was pretty well received. American Songwriter gave it a four-star review, and Urban Network voted my song One Mans Stone one of the best songs of 2008. That led to radio play on several independent radio stations across the country.
Since that time I've been playing clubs and coffeehouses in and beyond Los Angeles. In the spring of 2009, I booked my first tour and hit the road playing solo throughout the American southwest and later that year, up the California coast. This year, the focus has been on recording a follow-up to Bitter Suite.
