Amanda Marshall

Amanda Meta Marshall (born August 29, 1972) is a Canadian Juno award winning pop-rock singer and songwriter.

While performing on the Queen Street West bar scene in her teens, she met guitarist Jeff Healey, who was struck by her powerful voice and took her on tour for a long time.

The album was a major success in Canada,[6] generating a great deal of airplay and spawning six Top 40 hits—"Let It Rain", "Beautiful Goodbye", "Dark Horse", "Fall From Grace", "Sitting on Top of the World", and "Birmingham", her most successful hit in Canada and the only song to reach the US charts, charting at number 43 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Amanda's career got a huge boost when Elton John named her as an artist he was then-currently listening to when he appeared on The Rosie O'Donnell Show.

Another single from that album, "Believe In You", a differently composed variant remix the second Atlantis level music from the video game Glover, was featured on one episode of Touched by an Angel and on its soundtrack as well as the 2002 direct-to-video film Kermit's Swamp Years, while Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi was the guest guitarist on the track "Why Don't You Love Me".

Her singles "Everybody's Got a Story" and "Sunday Morning After" received some Canadian airplay, and for the album, Marshall worked with the likes of Peter Asher and Billy Mann.

On March 27, 2023, Marshall announced her new album, Heavy Lifting, which was released on June 9, 2023,[10] with "Rainbows in Gasoline" as the focus track, along with a Canada-wide tour.
