Amanda Overmyer Bio



Amanda Overmyer, driven, ambitious, soulful. Beginning her love for the sounds of classic rock at a young age, she developed a passion and incomparable drive to continue the legacy of Rock artists before her.

Influenced heavily by Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bob Seger, CCR and Janis Joplin, she produces a sound true to the roots of Classic and Southern Rock with the infliction of her own unique style and sound. Recently, she appeared on American Idol, and being the first contestant of her genre, still made her way to be one of the top finalists. Refusing to be moved, she gained the reputation of being a wild card, with a mid-west humility and a fearless ambition to stay true to herself and her sound.

Successfully, she made it through the fast pace world of Hollywood, unaffected by televisions attempts to dilute her. With no outside writers or co-writers she developed the new album "Solidify" immediately after the show's end. Recorded amazingly in 9 days, "Solidify" is the product of the grass-roots approach used by many before her, that keeps the spirit of Southern and Classic Rock alive.

Down-home is absolutely a word to be used for her and her organization. Starting her own record label, Chile Records, she made the decision to head up the entire operation herself with the help of her producer, Rocco Guarino, of Glendale, CA. They began the production of the album in California, however, needless to say, Amanda moved the project to her home, Indiana. There, she used local musicians with whom she had played for years, and was able to make it home every night to her beloved husband, Casey. Through the whirlwind of the past year and its content, one thing still remains the number one priority, her home and her family.

Now, with her band in tow, she is making her way across the states to show America her music and her sound. Priding herself on her live performances, she has received rave reviews of the live show and the album. She is quoted saying "The live show is what it is all about, performing these songs for a crowd is what I dig most, we're coming to "Solidify the Presence of Rock and Roll!". And that, she does.
