With the completion of his new CD, "Bending the Light" John Amos decided to take his soulful, gritty sound on the road.
Amos' style is uniquely fresh and creative. His textured, expressive voice ensnares the listener and takes them to the heart of his lyrics. He has a rare and profound humor regarding the human condition of love, heartbreak and all that falls between.
