Fabulous New Website!
Posted by Amy Roberts | Filed under News
Welcome to my new fabulous website! It’s been a long time comin and I am overjoyed to have it up and running. Thanks to my dear friend Joe (website guru) I can now update y’all with the latest news and views. Life has been a beautiful, joyous ride over the past year and there have been lots of changes. My partner, Nicole and I have an amazing 1 year old daughter and she brings such wonder to every moment of our lives. Louisa Soleil Champoux Roberts was born on May 25th and was welcomed warmly into this world by friends and family.
Needless to say, the focus of life shifted dramatically. I didn’t play many gigs and my songwriting took a brief hiatus. But now, I’m ready to get back into the flow of music once again. I thank Nicole and all of my dear friends for their support and encouragement during the past year. It means so much to have people want and ask for my music. Have no fear, I shall return. So stay tuned and I’ll be sure to keep you posted on any upcoming shows or events.
Thanks to all friends and fans.
Amy
Happy Spring!

Happy Spring.
Ahh springtime in Seattle where flowers are blooming, grass is growing and sinuses are aching. I’m just getting over a bout of the flu and am looking forward to warmer and sunnier days. Yay!
I’ve enjoyed playing some gigs over the past two months with some of my favorite people, Alicia Healey and Val D’Alessio. We did a sweet little gig at World Cup Espresso in the U-district that gave us each a chance to dip into some tasty harmonies and debut a few new songs. Gigs like that always make me realize how lucky I am to share a stage with these amazing, talented women. Let’s do it again girls!
In other news, I am truly honored and excited to announce that my CD, No Miracles Today, has been selected by Performing Songwriter magazine as one of their Top 12 DIY (do it yourself) Picks for the upcoming May issue! It is an amazing thing to be reviewed in such a respected national publication as PS. So go out and pick up a copy, or go to their website and listen to an MP3 of my song, Ready to Burn.
Check back here to find out about upcoming gigs and any other miscellaneous info. Hope to see you soon.
Be well and play on!
