Amanda Homi

about

Amanda Homi is a singer and songwriter with a deep and genuine affinity for music from around the globe. Born in London of English and Indian descent, she has lived in various countries and currently makes New York her home. Amanda has sung Rembetika in Greece, written and recorded Reggae songs in Jamaica, studied Sabar drumming and dance in Senegal, and has sung and danced 'round the campfire with Gypsy Flamenco artists in Spain. Her new CD, Drumgirls, is a virtual musical journey around the world. Co-produced with Graham Hawthorne (drummer with Paul Simon and David Byrne), it reflects their combined respect and passion for world music grooves and melodies. Drumgirls features a stellar cast of international musicians, with special appearances by Toots Hibbert of Toots and the Maytals, South African multi-instumentalist Tony Cedras of Paul Simon's Graceland, and oud master Ara Dinkjian. The songs are true to their international sources, and at the same time offer the best of great pop music—irresistable hooks, infectious grooves, and slice-of-life stories that will inspire listeners to sing and dance along. Exotic yet totally accessible, Drumgirls will lift your heart and open your world. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
