    Artist History
    Born in Los Angeles in 1998, My Sister Amazing combines the talents of five musicians from diverse but confluent musical backgrounds. With an organic yet eclectic approach to their songs, some have likened their layered, interwoven guitars to Radiohead, their vocals to The Sundays and their soaring melodies to Jeff Buckley. With a distinctive combination of emotional and physical sonance, My Sister Amazing creates music that is intriguing and engaging on multiple levels. Originally from Washington D.C., Jeny Nicholson, (vocals, wurli, acoustic) Chris Hopson (guitars, vocals), Christopher Parker (guitars, vocals), Jimmy Harrison (bass) and Jaime O'Connell (drums) spent several years in various bands playing the east coast circuit. In spite of their strong connection to DC, each of them felt a change of venue would provide more opportunities for musical growth. After a casual jam session in Los Angeles, the four friends from DC found themselves excited by the prospect of writing new music together. The group quickly began booking shows. After recording their first CD Like Low Tide, MSA won an LA Music Award (Best Independent Single) for the song “Even.” They were later featured on VH1’s “Rock Across America” as one of LA’s best unsigned bands.

    Press Reviews
    ...One band that I have been a fan for a long while now, is the female fronted My Sister Amazing. Lead vocalist, Jeny Nicholson carries out every note beautifully (but all the while rocking) and with a hugely talented group of musicians, Chris Hopson- guitars and vocals, Christopher Parker- guitars and vocals, Jimmy Harrison-bass, and Bobby Gonzales- drums, bringing their sound together to hold court in LA's huge sea of musical hopefuls. After recording their first CD Like Low Tide, MSA won an LA Music Award (Best Independent Single) for the song Even.” and were later featured on VH1’s Rock Across America” as one of LA’s best unsigned bands. Now the band has teamed with up and coming producer James O'Connell to make some new music, and the result of this union sounds great. This band has a lot ahead of them, and this new music seems powerful enough to be a hit contender on the changing face of alternative radio. Being that you good specialty folks are always ahead of the trend, this is a band you should look for to hit your desks soon or for more info or check out thier web site www.mysisteramazing.com. (Dayna Talley~RnR Magazine) ...L.A. wonder My Sister Amazing...Jeny Nicholson's soulful voice rises high above a strong foundation of piano, guitar, bass and drums to grab your attention while the rest of the band reels you in for the kill. Unlike many blase Los Angeles artists, it is clear by its performance that MSA feels the music in its soul. The band has already been recognized by VH1's Rock Across America as one of our city's best unsigned acts. After one listen you will be inclined to agree. (Brooke Garten~LA Underground)
