Another Blockbuster Season begins September 28, 2007 when Performance Coffeehouse Opens with Dynamo Amy Gallatin

The Milford Fine Arts Council’s Performance Coffeehouse promises yet another stellar season as bluegrass dynamo Amy Gallatin takes the stage on Friday, September 29, 2007 at the Milford Center for the Arts located at 40 Railroad Avenue South, Milford, CT. starting at 8:00 P.M.

Born in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Amy settled in Connecticut in 1993 to pursue her music. Four albums later (including a live album and a project recorded in Nashville with ace producer Rich Adler), Amy Gallatin and her band Stillwaters have taken the stage at some of the most prestigious venues in the U.S., Mexico, and Europe. They were invited in 1996, '98, and 2003 to tour several European countries. Their most recent performances in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Denmark drew extremely enthusiastic crowds at house concerts, music clubs, theaters, country & bluegrass festivals, and National Radio, as well as representing the United States as the featured performers at the European World of Bluegrass convention in The Netherlands.

Amy is at home singing various musical styles -- country, folk, bluegrass or western swing--branding each song with soulful sincerity. Her influences are diverse, ranging from old and contemporary cowboy tunes learned out West, to great country artists like Emmylou Harris, Merle Haggard, Loretta Lynn, and the Everly Brothers, with even a dash of blues influence thrown in--Koko Taylor, Amy is currently in Nashville recording a CD of duets with Dobro artist Roger Williams.
