Amanda Rose Riley "Secrets I Told To A Sound Hole"
Released in 2018
Amanda Rose Riley is a singer-songwriter from New Jersey. She's got a bit of a punk-influenced folk rock sound. I've always been impressed with her ability to take on challenges like busking in England. She has taken risks few artists ever take.
I interviewed Amanda in 2018 after the release of her debut album, Secrets I Told To A Sound Hole. That feature can be found here.
