While I was in college, Pandel Collaros introduced me to a beautiful movie called "The Last Waltz." Wow. Ever since that moment, I've been all about The Band. I spent my college years tearing apart Rick Danko bass lines -...

    Nashville's first power trio... coming soon! Check out this video of our first rehearsal - the three of us were never together in the same room until this night. Awesome! Video features raw footage of Sol Philcox on the lead guitar/vox, Sean Sunderland on drums, and Amanda McCoy on bass. We're playing all of the good stuff, Nashville isn't ready for this. Stay tuned.

    Here is the studio video that I promised! As always, my sessions with Pandel Collaros were extremely productive and successful! Thanks, Pandel! This video features raw footage from the January 2012 sessions for my new album, The Hurt - which is set to be released in Fall 2012. Here are some photos from the January sessions. Until next time! -Amanda

    I am so excited to be going into the studio this weekend! I have been hard at work with my producer for a little over a year creating something completely unique - and different than anyone will expect... I cannot wait to finish this album! Pretty soon my team will be releasing short teaser tracks, videos, and clips from my documentary footage that I have been compiling over the past nine months...
