AMY HELM has quietly become one of the most treasured multi-generational live musicians and best kept secrets as a singer, songwriter, and performer. She's now touring her critically acclaimed album “Silver City."The album draws inspiration from people and places Helm has encountered in her life: a young fan struggling with substance abuse, a rural ancestor who was married off and exiled from her children, a teen reeling from her rst heartache, and Helm’s own life as a single mother and hard-touring singer. The songs blend the folk twang of Helm’s childhood with gospel and soul.
Amy carries a storied “musician’s musician” reputation. The Grammy-award-winning producer and daughter of Levon Helm has an extensive musical pedigree. Amy embodies an authentic live musical tradition in her solo work and with the Helm Family Midnight Ramble, which carries on her father’s legacy.

““One of Americana’s most impassioned, soul-stirring singers.” – Rolling Stone
“Helm has always been a soul singer of the first order and her vocals soar.” – No Depression
“Amy Helm dwells in the songs she writes, turning her phrases and words in and out. She delivers little masterpieces of folk and soul that plumb the depths of human emotion.” – No Depression
“Amy Helm has a voice of a thousand ways, twists and turns, ascensions and intentions. It soars, flays, pleads, celebrates, guides, heals, teaches, and above all makes you feel.” – The Tennessean
