Amanda Lynn Musicians

AmandaLynn is a singer-songwriter based out of the Tampa Bay area. She got her start in music at an early age, singing before she could even talk. Her classical music training started at age eight with the obligatory piano lessons, later moving to clarinet. During middle school, she picked up guitar and ukulele, along with other odd instruments, and began writing songs. When AmandaLynn and her father started seriously performing together, she became enamored with the stage and performing as a singer-songwriter. Clarinet took her to the University of Tennessee to major in music education, but it wasn’t the career she wanted.

Just browsing over both books, they look fantastic! I'm a guitarist and uke player for over 25 years and was thinking about writing a ukulele book but you've already written what I think are the best, most comprehensive and thorough books I've ever seen for the instrument. I just might end up buying every book you've written and I'll be giving my highest recommendation for your books to my friends and students. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such great books!Peter Rhee
