From 1998-2011, AMY ENGELHARDT wrote, arranged and toured with Grammy-nominated vocal "band without instruments" The Bobs. Her solo CD, Not Gonna Be Pretty, hailed as the "unlikely and intriguing marriage of Nellie McKay and Meat Loaf," garnered two Just Plain Folks Nominations (the "Grassroots Grammys" - LA Times). Amy has shared the stage and/or studio with a diverse roster of artists ranging from Barbra Streisand, Donald Fagen, Jill Sobule and Tim Minchin to Harry Shearer and “Weird” Al Yankovic. As a composer/lyricist, Amy makes her Off-Broadway debut with Richard Rodgers Award Finalist BASTARD JONES (written with Marc Acito) at the cell theatre this June. Additional theatrical credits include commissioned adaptations of Carl Sagan's CONTACT and NICHOLAS NICKLEBY for Seattle’s CenterStage, and A COMEDY OF ERAS at ACT Seattle (w/The Flying Karamazov Brothers). The only honorary female member of the Vienna Boys Choir, Amy received MAC’s Dottie Burman Award for Songwriting in 2011. She splits her time between New York and Los Angeles, and is probably somewhere over Nebraska right now, hunched over a New York Times crossword puzzle.
