New CD Gets Moving with Global Treatment! A SoundPress.net Feature Article Wildflower Records artist Amy Speace's CD, "Songs For Bright Street" is being officially released throughout Europe this summer. The album will be available through O-tone / Edel in Germany and Austria, with an August 27th release for all other European markets through ADA/Ryko. Amy will be featured on the cover of the July issue of Edel (Otone's Distribution network) Magazine as one of their lead summer releases.
 Her single "Step Out Of The Shade" is currently receiving very good airplay across Germany, with some stations spinning the song up to 25 times a week. Amy has also been receiving rave reviews in German press, including Home of Rock, as well as Sweden's Musiklandet and Trots Allt. "A fully convincing Singer-Songwriter / Roots-Rock, in short Americana album, that excels with a refreshing variety, superb musicians and wonderfully crafted lyrics. Speace's lyrical elegance and the inventiveness of her finely selected metaphors intertwine very convincingly with the craft of her band, The Tearjerks and give each of the 13 songs its very unique identity. Boredom never comes near the listener, of course." Home of Rock, March 16, 2007 "Amy has the same immediate gravitas as the genre's queen, Lucinda Williams. But the best tracks on Songs for bright street are testimony to the fact that this is an artist who could well bloom into someone really big in the future." Musiklandet, March 16, 2007 "If Lucinda Williams is the queen of Americana, Kathleen Edwards is about to be challenged for the title of princess by this New York resident. Imagine both their spunk in combination with Roseanne Cash's elegance and you get Amy Speace. That she gets helped by Gary Louris from the Jayhawks on the duet is clearly a sign. We'll be hearing a lot more about Speace." Trots Allt, February 2007 Amy Speace is presently being featured in PBS' leading series of "short-form" programming FastFocusTV, airing nationally on more than 100 U.S. public television stations reaching over 62 million households nationwide. She has started 2007 with a bang, winning IMA (Independent Music Awards) Vox Populi winner for Best Country Song, selected as a runner-up in the Open category of the 3rd Annual IAMA (International Acoustic Music Awards) and nominated "Emerging Artist of the Year" for the 2007 Folk Alliance Awards. Most recently, Amy has made it to the Top 10 Country stage of the Famecast talent competition.
