The Album
“With All My Heart...a journey into the soul” includes songs by some of her favorite female voices as well as 2 original pieces and some old standards. It features the incredibly talented "Blue Lou" Marini playing sax on several of the songs and some of the finest musicians from Alabama and in the South playing on the entire album. This project is a work of love and devotion to her Lord and looks to break new ground with the genre of Christian Jazz, Big Band and Blues. God has gifted Amy with a unique sound that lends itself to this style of music and adding into the mix her passion for her Lord serves reach those who don’t know Jesus and encourage those who do.
Amy Drinkwater
Upon meeting Amy Drinkwater, it doesn''t take very long before finding yourself encircled by the warmth of laughter and friendship that gives you a feeling that you have known her much longer than a few minutes. It has been said that Amy has an effervescent personality, a vivacious spirit, and a contagious laugh that draws her into your heart. Her desire is to minister to others by using her gifts not only to sing but to encourage and to share the message of redemption and salvation through Jesus Christ.
Amy has been married to James Drinkwater for seventeen years. They currently make their home in Cropwell, Alabama, where they are owned exclusively by Jessee and Sandy, their mixed cocker spaniels. They have been members at First Baptist Church, Pell City, Alabama for over fifteen years.
Amy is a natural at singing and performing. In fact, her entire life has been spent in front of an audience of some sort. From dance recitals to piano recitals as a child to directing the band as a majorette/field director and featured soloist in high school to performing with her college choirs and sorority at Samford University and then spending 8 years as an elementary teacher, a member of the group “Inspiration” for 5 years and then a college recruiter and motivational speaker beyond that, Amy’s life has been devoted to serving audiences of all ages and venues. On the front row of those audiences, living in her heart since the age of 7, is Amy’s Savior, Jesus Christ. He is the giver of the gift of music and the author of her faith. He is the reason she sings.
Amy has had the awesome privilege of working with some of the finest coaches and musicians around, including Randall Richardson at Samford University, Roger Beale of The Voice House, Atlanta, Georgia and currently works with Ray Reach, of UAB and the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame and owner of Magic City Music Productions. Because of this Amy is a two time upper level finalist in a major contemporary Christian vocal competition at the Babbie Mason Music Conference International.
Recently, Amy picked up an endorsement from Christian Music Presenters. CMP is an organization that brings together artists and decision makers for venues around the country and soon internationally. This endorsement comes after a rigorous application, interview and audition process that measures an artist for ministry readiness. It is truly an honor to have this endorsement and Amy is thrilled to be partnering with such a fine organization.
2006 has been a landmark year from beginning to end for Amy and her band, the Magic City Jazz Ensemble. Releasing this debut album in January, 2006 opened the year and in December, Amy and the guys joined a fabulous group of Christian Jazz artists in presenting "A Christmas Jazz Celebration" at Carnegie Hall.
Amy calls her ministry “Sunflower Ministries” for several reasons. The sunflower historically represents adoration and is considered by her to be a happy, functional flower. Its seeds and oil provide nourishment and its big yellow blooms shine so brightly, much like the reflection of the sun. Her goal in ministry is to sow seeds of faith and encouragement and to be a reflection of the love of Jesus Christ and to lead others to know the true joy that comes in serving Him.
