Amy Craze’s lyrics pull you into richly woven stories of love, heartache and fury. The haunting richness in the resonance of her voice paired with the dulcet melodies that rise and crash with sweet crescendos will leave you breathless, hungry and wanting for more. Amy’s music was deeply influenced by the traditional British folk and rock music upon which she was raised. This combined with her love of blues and soul bring out a unique quality of her own. In her new album Lead the Storm, Amy stirs a new wave of texture into the growing genre of Indie Folk Rock.
