New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Amy Speace has confirmed an extensive US spring tour in support of her forthcoming album 'That Kind Of Girl' (out 3/3 via Windbone Records), an intimate, heart-wrenching exploration of a love affair and it's aftermath, the dangerous addictive dance of love and alcohol, and the sobering journey out of it. The tour includes an album release show in her hometown of Nashville, two release shows in NYC and three shows at SXSW. Tour dates below.
Today CMT Edge premiered "Better Than This," calling it "an empowering portrait of a woman who's finally getting her life back together." Listen here.
In an interview with Country Weekly, Amy discusses how no longer being in the midst of the storm has given the songwriting on 'That Kind Of Girl' some perspective: "That's the best place to look at it from, a place of honesty ... 'What was my part?' rather than 'Oh my God, I'm in such pain and this person is doing this to me and how do I get out of it?"
Listen to "Nothing Good Can Come From This," which Billboard says "channels the classics," here: https://bit.ly/1wZCSVz
