Editorial Reviews
Her first recording endeavor was "Here and Nowhere" in 1999. A string of pop songs tinged with a touch of garage rock, showcasing songs of teen angst, love, life, and the many confusing emotions of a teenager. Her second recording was a guerilla-style secret recording worked on one day of the week for of couple months along with her friend Grant Capes. A much darker recording than before, Amanda was now honing her skills at incorporating her classical background into her song writing. Many shows later... Amanda was introduced to friends at Immigrant Sun Records out of Brooklyn, NY. She showed them "The Grant Sessions EP", and soon she was off to record her first Indie-label recording. She flew to California to record with her friend Grant Capes again. The 2003 release, "The Places You Dwell", was the outcome of this organic, analog, lo-fi, ambient experience, " I wanted it to be haunting. I wanted the listener to feel like it was for their ears alone. I call it bedroom ambience." With this record, Amanda soon started touring more rampantly. With her aleotoric music, she even caught the attention of major labels.

Beautiful, haunting music,

This review is from: The Places You Dwell (Audio CD)
Amanda Rogers album begins with an acapella number, and you are immediatly captivated by how her voice carries the song on its own. The rest of the album consists of quiet piano-accompanied songs that showcase Amanda's vocal talents and lyrics. Even those who are not fans of this musical genre will probably find themselves unable to stop listening. The only problem with the album are substandard production on a few tracks, and the similarity in sound of several songs. Great things are on the way for Amanda!

This review is from: The Places You Dwell (Audio CD)
If you like piano, you like Amanda Rogers. The way she plays that instrument is the way she'll play the chords on your heart. Her emotional tracks are only backed by her soothing, yet stunning voice. This mellow CD is a great buy, and worth way more than 15 bucks. Amanda Rogers is incredible, and from the first track to the last...you'll be wishing the CD never ended.
