Amy Petty and Scott Fab

Amy Pettys sound and songwriting is a compelling, complex and original soundscape that weaves a lush tapestry of folk, pop, rock and blues ballad.

Art, mystery, and spirituality influence and infuse her poignant, evocative and sensual songs. These sonic canvases showcase the heartfelt emotion behind her lyrics and provide a foundation over which her voice and choral harmonies soar. Often compared to Sarah McLachlan, Eva Cassidy, Alanis Morrisette and Jonatha Brooke, Amy Petty has a signature voice and style both familiar and stunningly rare.

Amys debut CD Mystery Keeps You (July 2008) and her newest album House of Doors (November 2010), both released on the Red Pill label, were produced and engineered by musical powerhouse Jacob Detering (Bonnie Raitt), and feature spectacular performances by R. Scott Bryan (Sheryl Crow, Peter Mayer), Eric Grossman (Ks Choice), Jimmy Griffin, Joe Meyer, Dave Aholt, Dan McMahon and others.

Two of Amys songs are part of the award-winning documentary, Ride the Divide soundtrack, released in 2010. A commissioned work by Amy, Do What I Can can be found on The Life In the Years Project, an AARP compilation disc to benefit Alzheimers research.

Amy has performed at such prestigious venues as Carnegie Hall, Club Passim in Cambridge MA, Tupelo Music Hall in Londonderry NH, The Bitter End in NYC, The Maple Room in Lewiston ME, The Sheldon in St. Louis MO, Uncommon Ground in Chicago IL, Clark University, Berklee College of Music and Boston University, among others. She has shared the main stage with artists like Suzanne Vega, Catie Curtis, Christopher Williams, Tim Janis, Sarah Bettens, Pamela Means, and Melissa Ferrick.

Rather than reaching for sympathy or absolution, Scott Fab disarms audiences with an almost church like reverence a voice that can charm through dark and heartfelt emotions. Near-hypnotic presence, sincerity and always memorable performances has earned Scott Fab a well deserved reputation as a master songsmith in the Detroit area songwriters scene. This level of artistry has taken Scott from coffeehouses to large theaters sharing the stage with artists such as Sheryl Crow, Patty Griffin and Grant Lee Phillips among others. With songs that have appeared in both television and film, Scott Fab continues to shine uniquely in todays creative music scene.
