Amy Correia

Amy Correia delivers her third album You Go Your Way with a raw power that’s both vulnerable and fierce.  That musical honesty draws comparisons to Tom Waits and Michelle Shocked and The New York Times calls her a “singular talent.”

Her fans agree, pitching in to raise more than 35k to make Correia’s new record. The energy and urgency of this leap of faith is palpable. You Go Your Way is a spirited ride, covering broad emotional and musical territory. Each song is strikingly individual with Amy’s convincing voice at the center: full of feeling, spontaneity and gravelly soul.
Since her last record, Amy has been living what she describes as a ‘nomadic life,’ and some of her own stories seep into songs that relate people and places with poetic flair.

Written in various locales including several Brooklyn apartments, a Carolina coastal town, a Wyoming cabin, rural Connecticut and Southern Ohio, the new album finds finds its footing not in any specific place, but an immediacy of experience:  An unsentimental boy who’s father goes to war in Took Him Away.  A determined old soul in O Lord.  A sexually frustrated woman “sucking on a Tic Tac” in Powder Blue Trans Am.  Correia explores the darkness — and shines a transformative light with pathos and humor.
