Amanda Fish
Born and raised in the fertile ground of the Kansas City music scene, Amanda Fish formed her band in 2014, a Blues Rock and Americana trio featuring her from-the-gut vocal belting out impassioned lyrics over swampy guitar and rock-heavy drums, with a driving bassline that locks in the groove. She quickly cut and released her first album “Down In The Dirt” the following year on Vizztone Label Group. For that record she won the 2016 “Sean Costello Rising Star” Blues Blast Music Award. After relocating to St Louis in 2018, she released her sophomore album “Free” again on the Vizztone label, which would go on to win the 2019 “Best Emerging Artist Album” Blues Music Award. During the 2020 lockdowns, she cut and self released an album of living room demos, “Trailer Park Demos”, and some of that new material would make it onto the next record when she returned to the sound booth for her third studio album. The long-awaited new album, described as “A journey of faith, redemption, and hope against a backdrop of chaos and upheaval, “Kingdom” returns time and again to its message of truth and love” was released once again with the Vizztone label in July 2024.
