Amy Helm Vinyl Records
A singer, instrumentalist, and songwriter with a rich pedigree, Amy Helm was a veteran performer with years of recording and touring experience under her belt before she first stepped forward as a solo artist in her forties. A lifelong musician and music lover, Helm's parents -- the Band's legendary drummer and singer Levon Helm and singer/songwriter Libby Titus -- guided her training and influences. As a founding member of the alt-country collective Ollabelle and a backing musician in her father's Midnight Ramble Band, her signature is an instantly recognizable, grainy, soulful alto that coaxes subtle shades of meaning from any song lyrics she chooses to sing and inhabits the spaces between them with a receptive yet authoritative presence.
