Though her brilliant career has encompassed violin duties for everyone from Ray Price to Kelly Willis to Brian Wilson, Amy Farris truly shines on her solo debut, "Anyway". With nods to classic Brill Building pop, Patsy Cline-era torch songs, western swing and Southern California cosmic country, Anyway presents a unique new voice with a profound sense of history. Produced by Dave Alvin (Dave also co-writes several tracks and plays on the record), this record should be one of the most exciting debut releases in the Americana genre of 2004. Along with aggressive touring, Amy should get solid attention from roots music fans.
