Amy Stroup - The Other Side of Love Sessions

Amy Stroup - A consistent go-to source for Grey's Anatomy-friendly sweet/tart melodic folk/pop tracks, Nashville songwriter gathers up favorite songs from her three digital EP's for a full length CD...considered one of the best of the recent crop of Music City pop tunecrafters, Stroup heads out soon on the 2011 acclaimed  "Ten Out Of Tenn" tour of regional performing songwriters // Release: The Other Side of Love Sessions (July 12) // Sounds like: Stroup's voice has light, wistful and unadorned vocal style reminiscent at times of Deb Talan of The Weepies -- an ideal instrument for her simply laid out but affecting songs of love // Quote: "Henry David Thoreau said in regards to writing a novel, ‘ You just have to write one true sentence’. I try to do that in songs, just write what is true and it will naturally connect with people." // What we like: the soft, lilting quality that permeates "Quiet Heart" exemplifies Stroup's special way with a uncluttered melody -- no major twists or turns, just an ethereal, pulsing song that effortlessly connects..."Hold On to Hope Love" is a lovely folk hymn enriched with sweet harmonies and quietly dramatic orchestration...
