AmandaStevenson

Born: October 24, 1943

Started writing songs in 1970's when I joined the Songwriters Guild of America. Devoted 20 years to writing my musical. In 1996 switched to writing all kinds of popular music from smooth jazz to light rock, cabaret, and holiday songs. I consider myself to be a very commercial lyricist following traditional methods of songwriting. I have never written any song less than 100 times. I am very dedicated to writing a good lyric first.

Pippi Ardennia

Born: October 22, 1953

The following testimonials are examples that demonstrate how Pippi is more than a singer, song writer & song stylist... “Thank you for the CD! WOW!!! You are an incredibly gifted musician. So, you actually gave me 2 gifts! Ha Ha! I was a little stressed when I started the CD, and by „Black Coffee‟ I was groovin‟ as I was cruisin‟ to get to my lunch date”... Gretchen. Another admirer says, “Her voice has been described as an instrument; another master has emerged, as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn and Dinah Washington.” Pippi is a natural entertainer, sultry at times, always powerful and exciting, but what sweeps you away is the electric and sensual emotion that emanates from her to you, telling a story in song like you’ve never heard before; a natural power in nature. Pippi Ardennia…a Chicago native, singing since she was 13 years old, has performed at many of Chicago's most respected music and jazz clubs from the Burning Spear, High Chaparral, Capitol Theater, Redhead, Green Dolphin, Chicago Symphony Center, the Taste of Chicago, Dakota Jazz Club in Minneapolis, MN and on Chicago’s internationally famous Rush Street
