Search - Amelia's Mechanics :: North South

Amelia's Mechanics debut album North, South was produced by Jim Avett (father to the Avett Brothers) and was released on the band's own label in February of 2010. Despite what the oil-and-iron name might suggest, the women of Amelia's Mechanics swap that toughness for a more urban, sophisticated take on Americana music, using luxuriating harmonies and classical swells to temper their lyrical frustrations with love and life. The instrumentation and vocal harmonies of Amelia's Mechanics result in a genre-busting sound best described as vintage country with a moonshine concerto.
