Amy Lee
Amy Lynn Lee(born December 13 , 1981 ) is an American singer and songwriter. She founded the band Evanescence (http://www.evanescence.com/) with Ben Moody (http://www.benmoody.com/) when they met at a youth camp. Ben met Amy playing Meat Loaf 's "I Would Do Anything for Love" on the piano, where he eventually convinced Amy Lee to form a band. This marked the beginning of Evanescence.
Amy was born in Riverside, California. At school, Amy was president of the choir council, and participated in drama where she was in a number of plays. She has never had professional voice lessons, but has had classical piano lessons. Her family moved to many places, including Illinois, Kansas, and Florida, but finally settled in Little Rock, Arkansas, where Evanescence started. She graduated from PulaskiAcademy in the year 2000. She also briefly attended MiddleTennesseeStateUniversity.
Her father works as a DJ, and her mother works raising Lee's three siblings: her brother Robbie and her two sisters, Carrie and Laurie. When Amy was six, her three-year-old sister, Bonnie, passed away, and thus years later Lee recorded the song "Hello", featured on the Fallen album. This is the only song on Fallen that the band has not performed live
.
Her Style
Amy has a trademark gothic style, marked by her occasional use of gothic make-up (black eyeliner) and unique fashion which consists of often Victorian-styled clothing. She is known to design her own clothes, and sometimes even sew them herself. Starting her own clothing line has not been ruled out, according to her, although she has expressed concerns about the viability of such an endeavour, as she has mentioned that she prefers to create unique hand-crafted costumes rather than mass-produced fashions. In concerts, she often wears a corset or fishnet, and has a notable piercing on her left eyebrow which is visible on the cover of Fallen (Evanescence's debut album), even though fans have noted she appears to have removed it (at least temporarily) in recent concerts.
Unlike many celebrities, many fans praise Amy for her refusal to use sex appeal in her music. She has stated on a number of occasions that she would never "flash" her breasts or engage in other publicity stunts which would draw attention to herself. In fact, in the music video of Evanescence's latest single, "Everybody's Fool," she seeks to mock such artists by suggesting celebrities who use sex to appeal to an audience are "everybody's fool" and are in fact, merely peddling "lies" (the unifying theme of the music video).
Many fans have also suggested that she is very down to earth and refuses to be politically correct. In a recent interview, for instance, she called Velvet Revolver's latest album "a bore." She also uses profanity without hesitation. However, she has said, flat out, she is a Christian and is "very" in touch with her spirit.
Amy once stated in an interview while on tour that the successful duet "Bring Me to Life", featuring Paul McCoy of 12 Stones, was inspired when she met a friend of a friend. A total stranger who did not know her, somehow could see inside her and when he spoke, his words, "woke her up inside". This encounter with a true "Word of Knowledge" inspired the hit that would launch her career.
Her Influences Artists that have influenced her and her band's music include Björk (http://www.bjork.com/), Tori Amos (http://www.toriamos.com/), Korn (http://www.korn.com/), Soundgarden (http://web.stargate.net/soundgarden/), Portishead (http://www.portishead.co.uk/), Nirvana (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nirvana_(band)) and Coldplay (http://www.coldplay.com/index.php)
.
Other projects
She is featured on the hit Seether track "Broken" (a duet with Shaun Morgan of Seether (http://www.seether.com/)), which is featured on their album Disclaimer II as well as the soundtrack for the 2004 film The Punisher.
Amy Lee was working on the opening theme of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and was writing additional music for the film, though her music has recently been rejected for the film; the theme song will now be

Amy Lee Quotes
"I know how it feels to be completely alone and helpless, and the last thing you want to hear in that situation is, 'It's going to be OK.'
