“That quiet thud you heard across the nation as she strutted across the stage in her leather pants and bitch heels was 12 million jaws hitting the floor …”
– Rolling Stone Magazine
Bronx native, Puerto-Rican/Jamaican representing artist Amanda Brown has built a career out of provoking intense reactions from the musical elite. Many music lovers discovered her after witnessing her complex soprano on season three of The Voice––an accolade that endeared Brown to millions of new fans and won over critics at Rolling Stone, Billboard, and many more.
The Voice established Brown to fans as a captivating front woman, however; the most established recording artists in the world have been drawing on her talent for years. After receiving exemplary training at New York City’s world renowned FAME school and esteemed HBCU Howard University, she began working on the road and in the studio as a backing vocalist for some of the biggest artists in music including Stevie Wonder, Adele, Alicia Keys, Tori Kelly, Michael Bolton, Jennifer Hudson, Jessie J and Cynthia Erivo.
During 2018/19 she toured with The Killers as a supporting artist opening for the band to promote her debut album Dirty Water. She also provided live backing vocals for their global Wonderful Wonderful tour. Since returning from the road, she has gone on to perform in and compose music for both television and commercial broadcasting, receiving coveted placements on shows such as NBC’s new hit series Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist and a commercial campaign for Nordstrom. Whilst enjoying successes on screen, she continues to lend her voice to highly-esteemed musical works, performing on multiple tracks for Tyler, The Creator’s grammy award-winning album IGOR and The Killers’ single ‘Land Of The Free’.
Brown released her anticipated single ‘From Here’ on October 23rd. The lyrics speak directly to the hearts of those standing at an emotional crossroads, calling for honest self-realization and empathetic engagement from anyone who hears it. Brown’s new and compelling ballad is a triumph of her risk-taking, pop-savvy, finely honed alternative rock sensibilities and acts as a catalyst for her musical metamorphosis. ‘From Here’ dares the listener to survey the broken fragments of their lives, take a chance on self-belief and begs the question: where are we headed – as lovers, as a nation, as people? It serves as a fiery foundation of what’s to come from this powerhouse vocalist and songwriter. Her sophomore project is slated for release in 2021.
