Popis - THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: November 2005 CONTACT: Karen Leipziger/KL Productions (615)297-4452, klpzgr@earthlink.net AMY LAVERE'S SOLO DEBUT, 'THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME' NEW ARCHER RECORDS RELEASE JANUARY 17, 2006 'Amy LaVere is the most promising emerging artist I've seen in years. She has the whole package -- the songs, the voice, the looks, and she can triple-slap the upright bass like Willie Dixon on steroids. Move over. Amy LaVere is coming through!' (Jim Dickinson) Memphis, TN - Archer Records proudly announces the debut release of singer/stand-up bass player/songwriter AMY LAVERE, 'THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME' on JANUARY 17, 2006. Recorded in her adopted hometown of Memphis, TN and produced by PAUL TAYLOR, 'THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME' features Amy on vocals/stand-up bass, JIMBO MATHUS (acoustic & electric guitar), JIM DICKINSON (piano), TOMMY 'T-BONE' BURROUGHS (fiddle/mandolin), PAUL BUCHIGNANI (drums), FORREST PARKER (pedal steel), TONY THOMAS (accordion), JASON FREEMAN (acoustic/electric guitar),PAUL TAYLOR (percussion/ukulele/acoustic & electric guitar/mellotron/ washtub bass). The 10 original tracks on the album, 5 written by Amy, showcase her moody distillation of traditional country, artful rock and cool jazz that shatters the expectations of the genres. In addition to releasing her first solo recording, Amy LaVere has embarked on an acting career. She appears as Wanda Jackson in the Johnny Cash biopic 'Walk The Line' (November 2005) and is cast in the supporting role of Jesse in award-winning director Craig Brewer's ('Hustle & Flow') forthcoming Paramount Pictures production 'Black Snake Moan' featuring Samuel L. Jackson, Christina Ricci and Justin Timberlake. Amy LaVere's musical journey began in a small Texas/Louisiana border town. Nurtured on her parents' passion for the traditional and country music of Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Dolly Parton & Willie Nelson (her mother played guitar, her dad played drums), a favorite family pastime while she was growing up was traveling to bluegrass festivals. Amy's family moved 13 times before she finished high school (wherever her father's GM job took them), eventually landing in Detroit. During her Detroit teenage years, Amy fronted a punk rock band called Last Minute. For a bunch of teenagers, the group achieved much critical success. Knowing, however, that there was more to her musical journey, Amy eventually moved on. After a few attempts of relocating in various cities, the then-in-her-early-twenties Amy settled in Nashville with a day job as a secretary/assistant on Music Row. It was during this time that things really began to gel musically for Amy. Falling into the then bourgeoning honky-tonk night life scene on Nashville's Lower Broad, Amy shared a house with some members of Those Legendary Shack Shakers and Hank III upright bassist Jason Brown who taught Amy how to play slap-style rockabilly bass. She was a natural on the instrument. Hooking up with another roots music devotee, Gabe Kudela, they formed the Gabe & Amy Show. It was this duo's quest for the true roots of American music that brought them to Memphis. As the Gabe and Amy Show ran its course, Amy started writing more of her own songs and seriously pursuing her solo career. Word quickly spread around the Memphis-area about 'this pretty little gal with the big voice playin' a bass that's bigger than she is' Amy LaVere and the Tramps (Jason Freeman - guitar, Paul Buchignani - drums, Paul Taylor - drums/guitar/lap steel) and in January 2005, Amy signed with Memphis independent label Archer Records. To quote renowned producer Jim Dickinson, 'You WILL be hearing from this girl.' http://www.archer-records.com/artists/amy_lavere/media.asp FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, REVIEW COPIES OR TO ARRANGE AN INTERVIEW PLEASE CONTACT: Karen Leipziger/KL Productions (615)297-4452, klpzgr@earthlink.net RECORD CO: Archer Records, 88 Union Avenue, Suite 107, Memphis, TN 3810, www.archer-records.com
