Folk chanteuse Amanda Richards's strong, convincing voice and rich storytelling belie her mere 21 years of age. She seduces with dark, mature themes of love and violence and transports us into her vivid, storied reality.
Amanda Richards - Beautiful Delusions
A mixture of youth and wisdom, smart songwriting on contemporary culture combined with a strong, versatile vocal style.
Amanda is an artist for the ages, only 21 years old, but with generations of musical history in her blood. Her grandfather, Rusty Richards sang with the Sons of the Pioneers for 20 years. Amanda was raised on music yet has developed her own personal style.
She has recently received national attention with her political "Words" a song on the war in Iraq, her plea to shine a spotlight on a situation with only her voice and her words.
A new full length cd will be available soon. Look for Amanda Richards performances from Portland to San Francisco this summer.
