Amy Wolter
Amy has been performing on-stage herself for over two decades. Her experience is vast and varied, running the gamut from keyboardist to soloist, to lead singer in several bands. Her journey, which began in churches and coffeehouses, took a turn for awhile to clubs doing covers of top 40 tunes, then eventually led to concert halls and festival stages performing original music.
As the female lead singer in the Christian rock band Fighter, Amy has sung in front of thousands over the years. The band was signed to Word label ‘Wonderland’ and released two CD’s in the early 90′s – ‘The Waiting’ and ‘Bang the Drum’. (Husband Jim Wolter was the band’s bass player.) Her songwriting skills earned the band several top 10 CCM hits, with ‘Look Me in the Eye’, ‘Radio Man’ and ‘Alone with You’ among them. Fighter ended their successful 7-year run at a festival in Sao Paulo, Brazil in front of 110,000 people.
Amy followed the Fighter records with a solo album, ‘Hit Me in the Heart’, using several band members from Prince’s New Power Generation. She wrote or co-wrote 8 of the tunes.
Amy has produced some indie projects, as well as over 100 advertising jingles. She’s been in dozens of studios singing on jingle projects, many of which were self-penned, and has been hired for albums and demo sessions as a background vocalist.
With this multi-layered background under her feet, Amy definitely has something to offer other performers who simply want to be better. She says, “Over the last several years working as a Live Music Producer, I’ve seen amazing transformations in the artists I’ve worked with. I love watching a band or a singer become empowered with this knowledge, and I enjoy taking them on a journey from being a good artist, to becoming a great performer. My goal is to help you put together a powerful show and really own the stage!”
Along with Live Music Producing, Amy has been asked to be on the sets of video shoots, directing the artist during filming. She is also available for style consultations, giving guidance to the artist on imaging.
Amy is based in the Nashville area.
Read what artists have to say about Amy’s work:
“I’m always raving about how much I learned from (Amy), not only in performing, but it has crept its way into every aspect of my music and my open-mindedness to other’s opinions of my music… I highly recommend it to every one!! Since then, people have been so impressed with our live show, and we are getting offers to open on tours for some pretty big acts from this neck of the woods!! Words can’t describe my gratitude, but I’ll try….thank you.” (Dan Currie Band- Prince Edward Island, CA)
“I was there when Amy turned an already great singer I was payed to play for, into an even greater performer I would pay to see live.” (Seth Marcum, Nashville bass player)
“People always told me I was great on stage; however, when Simon, Paula and Randy said I was actually overdoing my stage performance, I knew it was time to take it to the next level. Tom Jackson and Amy Wolter helped me rethink every action and expression, shaping me into a polished, professional looking performer with new found confidence for American Idol Hollywood.” (Laura Gossett, Pop Artist)
“When it came to a ‘make it or break it’ point in my career, I didn’t hesitate to go right to Amy Wolter. She made my opening set for the Travis Tritt tour a hit, and it was more than worth the time and investment. Amy rocks!” (Kristy Gill, Country Artist)
“Considering 90% of most artist’s cash flow comes from touring, it makes sense to invest in this area of your career. Tom and Amy took our show to a new level, and we will definitely work with them again.” (Anonymous rock band)
“My boss here was very impressed and appreciated the successful changes you made with the group. As a result, the information has now been passed to the Pentagon where our head guys are…The military could begin to keep you all very busy! I anticipate you coming back again next year if you’re willing!!” (Clinton Whitney SSgt- US Air Force band ‘Nightwing’)
“Amy was a pleasure to work with, and by the end of it all, was definitely considered part of the ‘team.’ The show reached a new height when she stepped in!” (Beth Cayhall, Nashville, TN)
