Amy Papiransky Biography

Since making the final of the BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year, Amy Papiransky has continued to
carve her name in the Scottish music scene.

Originally from Keith in the North-East of Scotland, and now residing in Glasgow, Amy - a music teacher by
trade - has been writing and recording her own material for the last nine years.

“A bit of Dolly and a bit of Carole King with the piano, and a real tie in with good country writing over her
stunning Scottish accent!” – BRIT and Ivor Novello Award Winning Singer/Songwriter KT Tunstall.

A classically trained and infinitely talented multi-instrumentalist with folk roots, Amy has toured in Canada,
America, Ireland and Germany and played at the prominent Lotus Temple in New Delhi.

She has also performed live on BBC Radio Scotland’s Hogmanay Show, at BBC Proms in the Park and Roddy
Hart’s BBC Quay Sessions.

In 2021, Amy opened for KT Tunstall at PJ Molloys, Dunfermline and Blue Rose Code at Tolbooth, Stirling.

Amy’s debut album Read Me Write was released in September 2019 – a lesson in flawless vocal dexterity and
heartfelt song writing, the result of which is a contemporary, hypnotic and soaring sound with a side of sass,
funk and class - the product of the Scottish songbird’s musical maturity and growing confidence.

“Read Me Write is something of an astonishing debut – the lyricism of the songs, the singing, the
arrangements and the emotions explored are of a sort one would expect to hear from a much more mature
artist.” – The National

2021 saw Amy release singles “Dear Amy” - a sincere ballad perfectly complimented by a sublime piano
arrangement - which gained support from BBC Radio Scotland, Soho Radio and Vevo; and “Summertime Blues”- chosen by Janice Forsyth as BBC Radio Scotland’s ’Single of the Week’.

"Amy’s deep understanding and passion for music shines out in her solo work, showcasing intelligent yet
accessible pop mastery” - PRS for Music.

Amy released a cover of the Robert Burns song “As I Was a Wand’ring” in celebration of Burns Night 2022, and
has spent much of this year playing festivals in Scotland - including HebCelt, Edinburgh Fringe, Tiree, Great
Eastern - as well as working on new material.

A young woman with plenty to say, Amy has carefully crafted a collection of new mellow, uplifting folk songs
and effortless ballads which tell tales of love, loss, heartbreak and strength and she is looking forward to
sharing them with the world in 2023.
