About Me


INDIE ARTISTS NEED YOUR SUPPORT, BUY DIRECTLY FROM THE ARTIST WHEN POSSIBLE, DON'T COPY THE CD, ENCOURAGE YOUR FRIENDS TO BUY. I WOULD RATHER CHOOSE TO GIVE AWAY A CD THEN HAVE SOMEONE BURN IT. ASK ME IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD ONE, BUT REMEMBER, WE DESERVE TO BE PAID FOR OUR ART!!!!CLICK ON BUY NOW BUTTON TO GET 0815: A SPOKEN WORD EXPLOSION!!! $10 + $2 S&H"She kicks ass in all sorts of word slingin' ways - powerful, passionate and not afraid to speak the truth." ~~Jamie Anderson http://www.myspace.com/jamieandersonmusic http://www.jamieanderson.com
“If I close my eyes and listen to Amy, I hear sensuously smooth, in-your-face, aggressive spoken words that flow like that of a traditional poet or a modern day seasoned rapper.” ~~Liz Snavely LVNMUZIQ http://www.myspace.com/lizsnavely
Amy Hedrick has a unique style of ear bleeding words crafted with some mellow funk, edgy electronica, and simple acoustic riffs all woven together to deliver her own brand of truth. You may get a funked up sex poem, an in your face political rant, or a true to life piece on abuse. You may never know what to expect from Amy, except the unexpected. Don’t let her rough edges fool you, there is an intelligent honesty to her work and you can feel her need to spread her words as far as her voice will reach. Not for the weak at heart, while often appearing politically incorrect, Amy will always lead you away from the obvious conclusions you may think you have already drawn. True to her roots in political activism, gay rights, and womyn’s issues, Amy will drag you willingly down her path to make you laugh, cry, and gasp maybe all within the same breath. Never afraid to make someone uncomfortable, she will challenge you to challenge yourself. In the tradition of Alix Olson, but with her own brand of delivery, Amy is here to make you think, not to hold your hand and walk you peacefully through the process. Hang on, it may be a bumpy ride, but one you will be glad you took.
