About
“Flitting among styles with ease, Amy Correia wraps her raspy, earthy voice as comfortably around a gospel yowl as around a whispered confessional."
-Erin Meister Timeout Magazine
"Like Michelle Shocked and Tom Waits, Ms. Correia turns imperfections into intimacies." -Jon Pareles, The New York Times
Amy Correia is a singer/songwriter who made waves with her Capitol debut “Carnival Love” and received critical acclaim for her second album “Lakeville,” which became a New York Times "Critic’s Choice" by Jon Pareles. Correia recently finished her third full-length album this summer with Producer, Paul Bryan (Aimee Mann, Alan Touissant, Lucinda Williams). The new album "You Go Your Way" was funded entirely by her fans who raised over $35,000.00 last year to bring it to life. CBS News aired a piece this winter, featuring Correia as one of a growing number of artists looking towards their fans rather than a record label to get their albums made. A blend of gospel and orchestral elements, the new CD features Correia's lyrical prowess and distinctive vocals out front with top shelf string arrangements and on one song, a five-piece horn section wrapping around her. "There's a spirited and spiritual vein running through this new album which is a varied mix of sound and style: gospel, blues, classical, folk and a tinge of psychedelia." Correia explains. It will be widely available late Spring 2010. It's available now directly through her website.
