Amy McCarley

With poignant and thought provoking lyrics, Amy McCarley finds balance in a new perspective with MECO, her 3rd studio album released February 8, 2019. After collaborating in writing new songs with Bluebird Cafe round-mate and Nashville Songwriters Hall of Famer, Pat Alger, McCarley returned to the studio with esteemed colleagues, co-producers Kenny Vaughan & George Bradfute to work on MECO, her highly anticipated follow up to 2014’s Jet Engines. MECO was recorded and mixed by Bradfute in his Tone Chaparral Studios in Madison, Tennessee and features musician Chris Scruggs alongside esteemed guests Marty Stuart, Pat Alger, Kenny Lovelace, and Harry Stinson.


Uniquely relatable, this northern Alabama native’s music is embraced by Americana fans across the country and abroad. Vaughan says, “I think all of her songs come from a personal experience. Each song is about something she’s gone through, which is good because it gives her a little edge on the delivery. The emotional content kinda comes through in there.”


After leaving her post as NASA contractor at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville to pursue music in 2013, McCarley toured over 200 dates in support of her second album, Jet Engines, and continues to build on that fan base with tour dates for the new album.
