Support Independent Music

The lovely Amanda Shires is in the process of Fan Funding! You may know Amanda from her work with Thrift Store Cowboys and/or Rod Picott. Amanda has also collaborated with Denton favorite, Doug Burr, DeVotchKa, Gary P Nunn, and Billy Joe Shaver. She is a seasoned fiddle player and I can't get enough of her. In addition to being talented, Amanda is beautiful, caring, a great writer, and the wittiest person I know. Support the release of her 3rd album NOW by donating to the cause!

Oh yea - look for Amanda in "Country Strong" out now! Look for the girl in the blue dress :)

Shires is a damn talented and idiosyncratic song-writer...She is a fiddling maestro. At times her energetic, jittery vocals and eccentric lyrical subjects mark her out as a young female heir to the godfather of strange, Mr. Tom Waits. In her more conventional moments Shires sounds like the weird young niece of Dolly Parton.”
