Leigh Nash w/ Amy Petty – July 28, 2023

“The world knows Leigh Nash best as the delightful pixie-esque voice atop massive global hits such as
“Kiss Me” and “There She Goes” with Sixpence None The Richer, but she’s worked tirelessly to define her
perspective though her songwriting output, showcased on her latest project, “The Tide, Vol. 1,” a six-song
collection of duets recorded with people Leigh considers personal superheroes.

“What I’ve found to be true with my songwriting is that I seem to serve a story or song better when it’s
something that just happened naturally with me, like an encounter or conversation,” she says. “I tried it
back with Sixpence, but I’m just now starting to feel a little bit more at home in those songwriter shoes.”
Combine those choices of subject matter — honesty with partners in times of strife, recognizing others’
perspectives in periods of trouble, identifying blessings in the everyday — with duet partners featuring
voices both iconic and close to home, and The Tide reveals an artist at the peak of her powers.”

Amy Petty’s sound and songwriting are compelling, complex and original soundscapes weaving a lush tapestry of folk, pop, rock and blues.

Art, mystery, and spirituality influence and infuse her poignant, evocative and sensual songs. These sonic canvases showcase the heartfelt emotion behind her lyrics and provide a foundation over which her voice and choral harmonies soar.

Amy has performed at such prestigious venues as Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, Club Passim (Cambridge MA) and Tupelo Music Hall (Londonderry NH), among others. She has shared the main stage with artists like Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, Andrea Corr, Darlene Love, Suzanne Vega, Loreena McKennitt, Steve Van Zandt, and Melissa Ferrick.
