Many dream of breaking into the country music scene but few have the tenacity and talent of country music singer Amanda Nagurney. At an early age she realized her affinity for music: “my parents got me involved with piano lessons and singing lessons; it was something that I always stuck to. From there I started doing performances. It kept rolling and turned into what it is today,” explains the singer, now 22 years old.

After much deliberation she made the move from Buffalo, New York to Nashville, Tennessee—the home of country music. Her trek south to Nashville has had an impact on her work as an artist. “The music has transformed into me more so; I’ve been able to find myself in my music.” The city also has a lot to offer as far as experience and wisdom go; Amanda has been able to combine her own aptitude for the music industry with the seasoned crowd of country music’s best producers, writers, and musicians that will take her career to another level.

With the help of her new team, Amanda is setting out on her summer tour spanning 3 states and 18 venues. “I’m very serious about my music, but I just like to have fun and for the audience to have fun,” she explains regarding her on-stage performance. It’s not unusual to find Amanda among fans during a concert; she strives to engage the audience in her music. “Performing and being on stage has always been my favorite part.”

Just because she is fresh to the country music scene does not mean she isn’t fully capable of commanding the crowd. Amanda has been well received by country music fans across the country as an opening act for big names in country music like Sara Evans, Gretchen Wilson, and Travis Tritt.

Her first solo tour includes a return to areas around her hometown of Buffalo, New York. Amanda is looking forward to bringing her Nashville band and newly acquired knowledge back to Buffalo. She also plans on debuting some of the songs off her third album, which is still in the recording process—so there is a lot for Nagurney’s fans to look forward to during the tour.

All-American, gifted, down to earth, and driven, Amanda Nagurney is a country music talent not to be missed. Visit her website, www.amandanagurney.com, for more information about her tour, upcoming album, and exciting new projects.
