Amelia is absolutely amazing! Her voice is unreal and exactly what I was looking for my y2k trip hop inspired song! It's a pleasure to communicate with her and she was extremely professional about every single part of the process. As a music producer I also really enjoyed the way she split up and send the stems! I would give 6 stars and more if I could :)

I worked with Amelia for a topline on one of my instrumentals, and she is a total pro, and so easy and flexible to work with! Amelia really took the time to immerse herself in my music and get the feel for what I was looking for. She was also really receptive to feedback and I found the experience as a whole, extremely collaborative and fun! :)

Not to mentioned I'm very happy with the final result. She wrote beautiful lyrics and has a super unique voice. Highly recommend!

If you've read her reviews, you know that Amelia is a very talented vocalist. But what I was happy to discover is that she is VERY dedicated to giving the song exactly what it needs. I've had other talented singers just give me the bare minimum. Amelia was so patient and she went the extra mile for my project. I highly,highly recommend her!! So great to work with. :)
