Amy Studt Biography
Review The Artist (3)
Source: http://angela-via.net/~amystudt/bio.shtml
Amy Studt is a 17-year-old who’s more interested in Marilyn Manson or Korn than whoever’s passing
by number one.
Growing up in her British hometown of Bournemouth, she started teaching herself piano, playing guitar (“very badly”) and learning the oboe.
There was no escape from music, as Studt’s dad is a violinist and conductor who has toured with Roy Orbison and played on films, while her mom was head of music at a school
“Music was something that was always there,” she says. “I can’t even remember getting into it.
I think if you’re from a musical family, you either absolutely loath music, or you give in and do it yourself!”
Of course, she gave in, writing her first song at age 9.
From there, the songs never stopped, and Studt spent most of her time working on them on her own in the music room at school and “being constantly teased about it”.
At 13, she decided not to move on to the same strict school as all her friends, but to attend the area’s rival school instead.
“At that school you got a lot of freedom,” she smiles wryly, “and with freedom, things start getting a little bit more interesting
You didn’t have to wear a uniform, and there was a lot of free time.
When you get to a place like that, you start bending a few of the rules.”
Her recent troubled history has, at least, provided plenty of lyrical inspiration.
“For some reason,” she shrugs, “I just seem to have had an insane amount of experiences in a short time, so that’s why I think I needed a release.
I write more now than ever, because I needed to get it out.
And punish those people! Revenge is mine!” In fact, by the time Studt was 14, she’d written 42 songs.
Her dad, who regularly works in studios, suggested she come along one day and record some for fun.
She gave or sold the finished CD to various friends, and by a strange twist of fate, one landed on the desk of Simon Fuller (Annie Lennox, Spice Girls, S Club 7).
Simon got on the phone to Studt before the day was out.
“I never wanted to be famous at all,” she says.
“I genuinely just loved writing. Just like if you love tennis, you play it all the time - same with writing songs.
You want to write something better, you want to say everything in one perfect song, but it never happens - so you keep writing.”
Her first single, “Just a Little Girl,” found its way onto playlists in NY, L.A. and elsewhere around the country, with a full album of pop tunes due for release in the fall.

Great Music with Great Meaning | Reviewer: Kari | 12/25/2005
Amy Studt's music is something most people can relate to. Most of her songs deal with forgetting the past, heartbreak, relationships, and going against the norm.
She has a wonderful voice that can reach both its highs and lows.
Most of her songs are quite mellow, but a few (such as Ladder in my Tights) are quite upbeat and possibly even punk-pop.
I would definately recommend Miss Studt's music to anybody.
