about

THE BOOK OF AMY comes to you from three battered veterans of punk-rock art-damage. From DC, Mark Jickling (Half Japanese); Liz Downing (Lurch & Holler, Lambs Eat Ivy) from Baltimore by way of Alabama; and Rebby Sharp (Ortho-Tonics) from Waynesboro up in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

They reach into the wreckage and pull up Appalachian fiddle tunes, old-time banjo meditations, Irish marches, Carter Family broken-heart ballads, and more. Rebby on the fiddle, Mark on mandolin & banjo, Liz's celestial vocals. With nick-of-time assistance from the mighty Tinklers, David Fair, Jad Fair (who puts in a Dada version of "Cripple Creek"), and other lights-out musical talent. First-take recordings from Sugar Hollow, Virginia, and Baltimore City.

THE BOOK OF AMY. Bound for a common grave beneath the weeping willow tree.
It's only February and think I know what album is the album of the year.
Hooray for The Book Of Amy.
-Jad Fair (Half Japanese)
It's only 2013 but I think I know what album is album of the century.
-David Fair (Half Japanese)
