Amy Rigby has been writing, performing, and recording her transcendent songs about everyday life for over thirty years. A teenage denizen of CBGB who fell in love with country songwriting, she started bands Last Roundup and the Shams in NYC’s East Village before launching a solo career with album Diary Of A Mod Housewife. Her song “Don’t Break The Heart” was recorded by Laura Cantrell, and “All I Want” was recorded by Ronnie Spector and included on The Very Best Of Ronnie Spector. Amy continues to tour and release new music including 2018 album The Old Guys, single “The President Can’t Read,” and “Vote That Fucker Out” (2020, with husband and sometime duo partner Wreckless Eric).
Her first book, Girl To City: A Memoir was published in 2019.
