Black Hearth

Amanda Pearcy's Americana music is rooted in in her hardscrabble history. Testifying to her southeast Texas upbringing, with the region's multicultural mix, its Gulf of Mexico coastline, and its shared border with Louisiana's Acadiana, Pearcy's songs carry a sense, and the sensuality, of the South, weaving themes of home and its loss; love, both surrendered to, and longed for; the casting of spells; the ties that bind old friends; and our human experience's collective memory. Her voice - as a singer and a songwriter - is authentic, earthy, and soulful, with lyrics that are interspersed with wisdom, warnings, compassion for the human condition, and hope for genuine connections.
