Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Amy Speace is a New York musical staple at venues like the Living Room and the Bitter End and a favorite among the Nashville singer/songwriter crowd. Moving across the Hudson to Hoboken, Amy was drawn to a burgeoning New Jersey roots scene that was evolving. Influenced by artists like Son Volt, Ryan Adams, Lucinda Williams and The Jayhawks, she began working with other players and put together a band, The Tearjerks. The band honed its sound playing shows from Boston to New York to Nashville, where the Village Voice, Time Out New York and the Nashville Rage named Amy Speace the "Critic's Pick." Songs For Bright Street was produced by James Mastro (The Bongos, Health & Happiness Show, Ian Hunter). Bright Street features The Tearjerks and is graced by guests Gary Louris (The Jayhawks), E-Street Band fiddler Soozie Tyrell and Cliff Eberhardt.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smart songwriter, beautiful voice, May 23, 2006
By Lauri (Ellicott City, MD USA) - See all my reviews
This is a great CD. Amy has a lovely voice, and the songs are clever and witty. It is hard to classify the genre - it ranges from folk to rock, with a little bit of twang thrown in for good measure. I love the opening track, Step out of the Shade, but it's the tongue-in-cheek Double Wide Trailer that gets stuck in my head all the time. Real Thing is the best girls' song since the days of Helen Reddy and Gloria Gaynor. I would definitely recommend this CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars A star on the horizon, July 6, 2006
Amy's voice is better than ever; she has a command of ranges that can be awesome. Her lyrics reach the heart and make the listener hear the story. She is witty and sassy in The Real Thing, sentimental with feeling in Two, and Double Wide is just a great song to have fun with the crowd. She's a winner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great talent and CD, April 2, 2007
I saw Amy Speace twice in Harrisburg PA and she's a very good songwriter and performer. She has a beautiful voice. I'm basically a classic rock fan, but lately I've started enjoying some new country music and I really like this artist. Go hear her if you have a chance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amy is the Real Thing
This CD's songs resonate long after listening to them. It is especially great for long road trips. Amy writes words and music that reflect and touch the Amercan spirit. Read more
