Amy Sky is one of the finest Canadian female singer-songwriters widely known for her excellent compositions covered by Anne Murray, Diana Ross, Heart, Olivia Newton-John and Belinda Carlisle. After graduating from the University of Toronto's Faculty of Music, Amy sang as back vocals singer for a while. Then Amy moved to Nashville for beginning songwriting in earnest. She was signed with MCA Music, Nashville TN in 1985 and soon became one of well-known songwriters. No sooner relocated to Los Angeles in 1986 than Amy quickly gained a reputation for her fine songsmithing sensibility. In 1987, Amy decided to go with Capitol Records after consideration several offers from major labels as a new recording artist. By that time, she had met and married with Marc Jordan. Her first album had been slated for a 1990 release, but an executive shuffle put an end to this project.
As her family grew, Amy realized she did not want to bring up her children in Los Angeles (several earthquakes, bush fires and a riot had taken their toll). Amy, Marc and their children returned to Toronto in 1993. With creative atmosphere of Toronto, Amy's multiple talents blossomed. Her debut album "Cool Rain" was finally released in 1996, which earned her two Juno nominations, Songwriter of the year in 1996 and Best New Solo Artist in 1997. Another important event for Amy in 1996 is her leading role in the musical "Blood Brothers" with Michael Burgess and David Cassidy. In 1998, she has released her second solo album "Burnt By The Sun" dedicated to her father, Huck Shiner (1916-1997). In 2000, Amy released a conceptual album "Phenomenal Woman" that explores, inspires and celebrates womanhood. Whilst Amy continues solo releases, Amy released an album “Liv On”, a collaboration with Olivia Newton-John and Beth Nielsen Chapman of songs to support those seeking healing from loss, in October, 2016 The trio toured in 2017 and it was really great show which I attended on 26 January, 2017 at Union Chapel, London UK.
