Hailing from Bristol, England, Amy Wadge is a Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter known for her collaborative writing efforts with artists such as Ed Sheeran, James Blunt, and Kylie Minogue. Born in 1975, she developed a passion for music at an early age and was influenced by the sound of artists in her father's record collection such as Joni Mitchell, Tracy Chapman, and Elton John, and soon took to writing her own songs after learning to play the piano at nine years old. By the time she was 11, she had also taken up guitar and taught herself to play along with Tracy Chapman's eponymous debut, which also influenced her writing style. From there, guitar became her primary instrument. While studying at school, she began performing her own material at venues in and around Bristol. She eventually relocated to Wales where she graduated from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and went on to write and release her own material while also earning a reputation for her performances on the local gig circuit. She went on to release a vast number of EPs and albums in the 2000s and 2010s. Both 2002 and 2003 saw her win Best Female Solo Artist at the Welsh Music Awards. 2003 also saw her tour Australia with the Welsh rugby team, performing the song "Adre Nôl" during the World Cup. One of her most popular writing credits was on Ed Sheeran's 2010 EP, Songs I Wrote with Amy. She also went on to release the Rivers Apart album in 2011 with Liverpudlian artist Pete Riley. In 2016, she received further accolades, including an Honorary Doctorate of Music at University of South Wales and the ASCAP Songwriter of the Year Award. She put out another EP, Keeping Faith, in 2018.

I am in the middle of series one "Keeping Faith" and was struck by the quality of the music and all those A cappella harmonies. During the songs I loved the voice of Amy Wadge and the beauty of the recordings. I had never heard of Amy before but would just like to pay tribute to this awesome singer/songwriter. I had to stop the credits at the end to find out who this artist was, so glad I did. You are totally amazing Amy and superb live thank you for sharing your talent with the World. Thanks also to you David Barrs for uploading. Cheers Billy ;)
Discovered this song when the Mrs was watching TV a few days ago. Every now and then you discover a song that you know you will love for the rest of your days. Usually completely out of your usualy genre. The last song that did this for me was Distrurbed and their version of Sound of silence. Now this song. It is simply stunning, haunting, sad, emotional. Just wow!
100% with you Blake the most beautiful song I have heard in a long tiome
I'd second that Blake, since hearing it on TV I've been completely addicted and I'm so glad I stumbled upon it! Truly wonderful
Spooky as I agree with your sentiment anout Amy Wadge and the Disturbed's version of Sounds of Silence also falls into this category for me!
I Yes I totally agree!
I've just watched Keeping Faith and loved the series and the music especially this beautiful song. Amy Wadge is such a talent.
I tortured myself with this song for a year. One of the best soul healing songs ever
❤she lead with her heart. Spoke her truth. Some people don't listen nor care. All good we find each other ❤
I never heard of Amy Wadge until I watched Keeping Faith and instantly fell in love with her music. I had to Google to find out who she was.
So did I ,
Me too!
@@meadowlane637 me three!
Wow i hadnt heard of her before the series . She has the most pure soulful voice
I’ve only just found Keeping Faith (in Australia) what a super series and the music is sensational and your performance of Faith’s Song is out of this world. I shall be following your career from now on. You are wonderful

Beautiful song and singing
I have never heard a more real, heartfelt song. Absolute magic. Thank you all.
Amazing, the only song that could possibly weave into the breathtaking story of Faith. Strength, love and resilience.
Amy deserves so much more recognition than she gets..so talented xx
I love this heart wrenching song. I had to have it after finding "Keeping Faith" the series. I cannot even say how many time I play this on repeat.
What a stunning performance by an amazing song writer, feeling right from the heart, so moving.
I fell in love with this song during the show 'Keeping Faith' and had to make a video of it here on CZcams and it now has over 116,000 views - however seeing Amy perform this song live is absolute magic so thank you David and of course Amy for this wonderful performance and recording.
MIKE O'BRIEN lovely song, nice voice and great drama
Song enhances Ms. Eve Myles incredible acting
Love love this song So deep sends shivers up my spine You have a wonderful beautiful voice Amy
Faiths song rang true for me, my husband dying three months after a cancer diagnosis in 2016. He kept his diagnosis from all of us for several years, finding a few letters and lab results in his desk after he died. I gave my soul and would do it again, just to have him with me. I'm rewatching the series because I remember nothing. First two years after he died, I don't remember much. Except those things and people who hurt me, knowing they're doing it. Thank you for this music.
Sending you huge hugs. xx
Absolutely perfection, simple, meaningful lyrics, performed sublimely live with no mixing or effects, Amy, absolutely outstanding, Neal Peart (RIP) would have appreciated your writing.
This song brings tears to my eyes. Thank you Amy.
Mine too...can't listen to it without shedding a tear or three.
Amy in collaboration with west-life and ed sheeran represents; in my view; the cream of current music.
Listening to this artist gives me the same chills as listening to Eva Cassidy. Haunting
The words are so heartwarming and full of compassion from the heart true love
I fell in love with voice and song while watching the BBC drama Keeping Faith truly magical x
Kim Gait I also did just that.
Beautiful sweet voice go Amy
Update - Amy - on her own - represents the cream of current music! Happily there are one or two others who's contribution to music is also very good! I feel a confidence in our musical stars right now.(PS> I'm in late 60's!)
Beautiful
