About

Raised in small-town New Zealand, Amelie moved to Amsterdam in 2021 to continue her passion for jazz and upright bass. Now, at the beginning of her development as a songwriter, she embarks on a journey as an indie-folk musician. Inspired by the likes of Adrienne Lenker, Joni Mitchell and Aldous Harding, Amelie’s songs embody the New Zealand folk music experience.

In late 2024, Amelie will release her self-titled debut EP. This new collection of songs breath the sentimentality and turbulence that moving away from home and growing older inspire. In that sense, a musical diary has been formed which speaks of isolation and finding comfort in unknown. With wistful guitar playing, a gentle voice and poetic melodies, her songs hold a vulnerable power and mark the beginning of a beautiful journey.
