Green Note Presents: Amy Speace

Water Rats · London

Acclaimed Nashville-based singer-songwriter and poet Amy Speace returns to the UK with a new live show, The Cardinals: Songs, Stories & Poems, an intimate concert experience weaving together songs from her ten-album catalogue with poems and stories from her new collection, The Cardinals. At the heart of the show is a deceptively simple question: what is the difference between a song and a poem? Speace traces a path through a life shaped by words and music: from learning to read at the age of three with her grandmother, who taught her through road signs and later gave her a book of Robert Frost’s poetry; through her beginnings as a songwriter in New York City and her years in the theatre; to motherhood, the birth of her son and the death of her father. Rather than presenting poetry as a separate reading within a concert, Speace allows poems, stories and songs to flow into one another. The poems become connective tissue — opening doors into the songs, revealing where they came from and illuminating the experiences behind them — creating a seamless evening of music and storytelling. It is an approach that brings together the qualities that have long defined Speace’s songwritin...

AMY SPEACE

Memorial Hall · Otford

“What Amy Speace says – what she sings – she says with a confluence of poetry and honesty, of emotional specificity,” writes The New York Times. Amy is one of the most heralded singers and songwriters of her generation, working for the past 20 years under the radar of the mainstream music industry. A lifelong musician, it was a chance meeting with legend Judy Collins that changed the direction of her life when Collins invited her to join her on tour and subsequently recorded her song ‘The Weight of the World’, calling it “one of the best political folk songs I’ve ever heard”. In 2006, Amy signed to Collins’ Wildflower Records and released her debut album, ‘Songs For Bright Street’, which received widespread critical acclaim. Since then Amy has released a further 11 albums, She is also a well-respected writer, she’s had essays published in The New York Times, No Depression and Working Mother Magazine, and she leads workshops in songwriting and performance. Her forthcoming debut collection of poetry, The Cardinals, will be published by Red Hen Press on September 1, 2026. She holds an MFA in poetry from Spalding University.
