Amanda Williams is one of the most talented and versatile songwriter
artists in Nashville. Born in East Tennessee, her mountain heritage
shines through in her earthy and often unorthodox approach to music
making.
Whether she is crooning a country ballad or rocking out with her
Gibson SG, Amanda's music is authentic, heartfelt and real. Amanda Williams
cuts through the surface layers with the precision of a surgeon and
reveals the beating heart of a song.
Her primary purpose is to connect with her audience and make them feel something. She says, "One
thing that I learned about song writing is that if a song doesn't
make you want to laugh, or dance or cry then it's not doing its job."
She learned her lesson well. Truly entertaining - truly amazing.
Her songs make a difference.
And so does Amanda Williams.
