With Amy Kuney, appearances are certainly deceiving. Sure, the singer/songwriter looks youthful, perhaps even younger than the early 20s bracket she occupies, but just wait until she sits down at a piano and starts singing. The onstage presence and authority she displays is impressive for an artist of any age, and that’s before you even notice her songwriting, which resounds with finely observed details and engaging left turns.
Now, as debut Bird’s Eye View is released, more will have the opportunity to know (and love) the talented songwriter that fellow artist Kate Voegele calls “an amazing lyricist” and compares to Fiona Apple and Sarah McLachlan and whose voice Ann Powers, of the Los Angeles Times, calls “especially lovely”.
