Ami Williamson
Forceful, funny, powerful and poetic, Ami Williamson is a Folk Singer/Songwriter like no other!
Ami is one of those rare female singers. While her roots are firmly in the tradition of singer/songwriter, her richly diverse upbringing had Ami taking the stage not only in opera and classical, but also touring with her father, legendary country music artist John Williamson.
As a much loved and well respected artist on the Australian music scene, Ami has enjoyed regular headline engagements at all the major festivals including Port Fairy Folk Festival, Woodford Folk Festival and the National Folk Festival as well completing several national tours and regular cruises.

“Nothing scares her, she’s fearless on stage!” – Joan Baez
“I cried, I laughed- then both at the same time – one woman show at it’s best” – The Sydney Morning Herald
“What do you get when you mix an entertainer with a songwriter? An ex-opera singer with a comedian? A folk singer with a set of drums? A show girl with a poet?….. Ami Williamson!” – The Canberra Times
“Ami is my newest most favorite performer! She is brilliant. I don’t know where to start…..her songs, her voice, her musicianship, her HUMOUR, her frock, her hair or just everything!!!” – Todd McKenney
