Amy Thiessen
Amy Thiessen is a Calgary-based artist who combines a soulful voice with a funky folk sound and life empowering lyrics. Thiessen is driven by her love for the world and uses her power house voice to ignite change and growth. Her journey has led her to travel the world studying different spiritual practises and many of her songs are infused with a message of grace. Currently Thiessen is working on her debut album to be released this summer. The music from her EP "Tell me" (2009) can be heard on various campus radio stations as well as CBC and CKUA.
Over the last year Thiessen has toured extensively across Canada, most notably on the "Ladies that like to Folk" cross Canada tour alongside Sidney York and Kaley Bird. This year Thiessen has shared the stage with The Sirens of Song, opened for Kate Rusby and been a part of the "Stand up for the DI" campaign. You can catch Thiessen Tuesday nights at Oolong Tea House where she host a community music night.
