Duncan is a classically trained double bass player, studying at both the RNCM in Manchester and the RSAMD in Glasgow.
[2] After completing her studies, Duncan played double bass in experimental band Swelling Meg, who achieved a following in Edinburgh and Glasgow's underground music scene but disbanded in 2000.
managing director of Linn Products Ltd, Gilad Tiefenbrun, said of the signing: "We're excited to have Amy Duncan on Linn Records because she is everything we look for in new talent: original songwriting and heart-felt, pitch-perfect delivery combined in a powerful, musical experience.
"[5] Duncan stated:"Up until now my music has been entirely self-produced, and although I have loved that process there has always been a frustration that it doesn't sound as clear and as alive as it could.
It feels very right to now be releasing the album with Linn Records, whose ethos of high quality sound is very close to my own heart and I'm very excited indeed that people will be able to listen to the recording in studio master quality.
