Editorial Reviews
Miriello's difficulty playing any role aside from her straight-talking, take-no-prisoners self probably explains why the attempt to translate her vision to a band turned out to be a false start. Dirtie Blonde, Miriello's first signed project, had the olive-skinned, Italian brunette regularly touching up her roots while singing songs that owed more to their collaborators than her own heart. "It was impossible to lose myself in the music," she notes. But Miriello remained persistent and her passion for expressing herself through song never faltered.
Naturally then, it's Miriello's honesty that's impossible to miss on I Came Around, her BellaSonic/Jive/Zomba debut. Miriello insistently declares, "I'm learning as I go" on the chorus of the title track and first single, offers the spot-on observation that "I'm older than my skin is in this life" on the piano ballad "Snow," and flirts with a crush on "Brand New." And while there are assists from some noted producers, the primary contributions come from Amie and her longtime guitarist/collaborator, Jay Dmuchowski. I Came Around conveys Miriello's personal vision and regarding the new material she beams, "I'm just so proud of what I've done."

Could be the next big female singer/songwriter,
By
This review is from: I Came Around (Audio CD)
Very impressive, great voice-powerful at times, sweet the next, earthy sound. Combination of Morrisette, Janis J., Sara Barreilles. Each of the 11 cuts are good. Some great. She wrote all cuts. really, really good lyrics, a storyteller. Can you tell I enjoyed the cd ? really a more than just pleasant surprise. I happened to listen to a 2006 album by Dirtie Blonde and as soon as I heard the lead singer's voice I new that I had to hear more and found that Aimie had just released her solo album.
Some songs soar. Each cut takes a unique turn halfway through. She knows how to sing. Good backing band.

How did this album miss the charts? This is an absolutely brilliant album with essence of Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Regina Spektor, Amiee Mann and the likes - with an edge. Great writing on melodies and lyrics. Let's hope her new band So & So gets its due.
5.0 out of 5 stars

Amie really kills with this album. She has such an amazing voice and awesome melodies. I don't understand how she didn't become a bigger hit.
