Born in Virginia and raised in Boston, Amelia graduated from staging plays in her back yard to writing songs as soon as she acquired an acoustic guitar. The writing came quickly and hasn’t stopped since, She said: “I like to think of myself as a writer-song singer instead of a singer-songwriter.” she says.

Now based in East Nashville, she has honed her craft playing coffee houses, bars and house concerts.
