Amelia White AND Sue Donahoe reporting from SXSW

"My band lately walks the line between a caveman airplane up in the sky at high speed almost ready to fall apart, and a fine glimmering jewel..."-Amelia White
Raised In Virginia, and based in Nashville, Amelia White cut her musical teeth in the New England area, in the same scene that produced Mary Gauthier, Lori McKenna and Sarah Borges. Her music has been described as hard rocking -folkin -alt-art country… Her Albums BLUE SOUVENIRS and BLACK DOVES (funzalo Records 2006) put her on the map with critical acclaims nationwide, steady non-com radio play, appearances on E-Town and NPR’s All Songs Considered and various TV placements. ... the most current being a spot on FX JUSTIFIED ...an episode which features Dave Alvin.

"The bones of Amelia White's songs on "Beautiful and Wild" rattle my heart with her swaying melodies that rock her always engaging poetry. This is my favorite of hers for sure, I especially love her song to Duane Jarvis, Beautiful and Wild.'- Rosie Flores

Sue Donahoe, author of "Never Herad of "em" about the 90's musical  explosion in Austin Texas will be checking on on what is happening on her book signing tour and other events during SXSW.
