AMY VIX (band)/ Dolly Mavies (band) / Amy & The Calamities

AKTION MUSIC presents the first in a series of Monthly band nights at The Finborough Arms. The first event featuring Amy Vix forms part of a week long festival to celebrate International Women’s Day (8 Mar).

AMY VIX

Chosen as one of three from 170 acts, Amy successfully made the Glastonbury Emerging Talent competition longlist in 2019. Read the full review.

Amy grew up in a large musical family in a small town on the outskirts of London listening to rock and writing music with her brothers. Amy’s mother is a writer who loves country music and her father a keen electric guitarist.

Amy’s sound has been described as americana, based on her country-style vocals but the strong emphasis on electric guitar gives her a unique edge. Her attraction towards guitar was inspired by listening to blues and rock growing up and her songwriting has been influenced by americana singer-songwriters and UK rock bands.

“The London-based singer songwriter’s penchant for heavy guitar reverb combined with her Americana Country vocals is one of the most refreshing genre-defying sounds I’ve heard in a long time.”
– A n R Factory’s Amelia Vandergast
