The music of Amos Lee is directed in the American tradition spirit. The inspiration has been taken from folk legends Dave Van Ronk and John Prine and soul greats, Bill Withers and Stevie Wonder. Listening to the music of Amos Lee one can sense the feeling of uplift, inspiration and unity.
One can feel the ‘folk’ side of Amos Lee music in his lively acoustic guitar that is played with intimacy and several live performances are held. The ’soul’ side inspiration could be determined by the lyrics and in what Philadelphia Inquirer portrayed as ‘raw, unedited emotion’ and ‘easygoing voice.’ |
