About
Amy Young – …”a fresh spirited performer of soulful and timeless standards, crowd
pleasing covers and original tunes that are thought-provoking and deeply cultivated. Amy’s
voice has been described as energetic, engaging with a sweet clarity that carries an
almost visible strength. Mix the melancholy and intimate styling of Natalie Merchant with the
playfulness of Sheryl Crow, add the grittiness of  Joni Mitchell and you begin to get the
idea."

Young currently plays a variety of Western Michigan venues including the BOB, Ottawa
Tavern, convention centers, area coffee houses, festivals, retreats and private events. Her
band features the talents of Alan Applegate, David DeVos, Jim Dow and Wright McCargar.


"Amy, thanks so much for playing at our
wedding. You guys were fantastic!! We have
had a number of people tell us how much they
enjoyed your music. You provided a great mix
of both fast and slow songs and you kept the
crowd on their feet and on the dance floor all
night. Thanks again!!"
                     Shannon & Dan - Chicago, IL

Endorsements
The Amy Young Band was a hit for our wedding - they provided music during our dinner hour at the Prince Conference Center. We received so many compliments on their style - very smooth, relaxing, but it kept your attention at the same time. It was the perfect "in between" that we needed before we started the DJ music and dancing. The provided all of their own set-up and tear down, and went over a few songs - and I left the rest up to them. So easy and perfect! Amy and the rest of the band members are active members of my church, so I do know them well - anyone would be blessed to have such a talented and professional group as part of your event! That was one of the things early on in planning our wedding that we knew we wanted. Thank you so much Amy and Company for being a part of our wedding reception memories!
