About Amy Loftus, Nashville Scene recently wrote: "She is that rare find who sounds fully developed on first blush". People tend to fall in love with Amy Loftus. She’s beautiful, and that certainly helps in this business, but it’s Amy’s gift for melody that really gets under your skin. Songs like "Cavalier", which was a finalist in the 7th annual CMT/NSAI Song Contest, instantly hook into your brain, leaving you wanting more. Raised in Chicago (alumni of nationally heralded Second City), and trained as an actress and a dancer, Amy moved to Nashville after a stint in LA in 2002 because "it was the music that brought me there, the sense of reverence for the song and for songwriters. I knew I had a lot to learn about writing and I knew I could only learn it in Nashville."

Amy has a degree in art but changed her mind about becoming a visual artist as soon as she sang onstage. "You gotta be all loner to paint. I'm half loner- I'll write, but then I want to go sing it to people." In 2001, Amy began teaching herself how to play guitar. In 2003, she began playing solo shows and working on the demos that led to her first independent album, "Straight to Amy", produced by Will Kimbrough and released in 2005. Shortly after that, in a city full of girls with guitars, Amy was named "Best New Singer/Songwriter" by the Nashville Scene. The song "Work to Do" placed third in the International Songwriting Competition, (hailed by the New York Times as “the songwriting contest to take note of”). "Better", a full length album recorded live to two track analog with engineer/producer Lij, followed in 2007, and warmth at Americana radio continued, including an enthusiastic welcome from BBC radio host Bob Harris. Amy released Fireworks, an EP she co-produced with keyboardist John Deaderick, in January of 2008.
Amy is not a live act to be missed. One reviewer wrote: "It's a rare thing in LA to have a bar full of people shut up and listen. A voice as hauntingly soul-stirring as Alison Krauss". Amy spent the winter of 2008 touring in support of  Fireworks, and recently relocated to LA. Her self-produced digital release of seven new songs entitled "Peas and Carrots" arrived on I-tunes on Nov. 18, 2008 in conjunction with a Film/TV licensing deal. Amy is currently playing in the Los Angeles are and writing and recording new material with songwriter/producer Matthew Hager (Scott Weiland, Mandy Moore, John Taylor).
