About Amalia
Amalia Fleming’s honey-covered vocal tone and sweet melodies lure us in, but then something even more powerful begins to emerge as each well-crafted lyric unfolds. The vulnerability, charm, and beauty of her persona surrender to a quiet defiance and confidence as she reflects on love and heartbreak, angst and optimism, and the precarious state of our world. She gathers all these elements into her songs and uses them as fuel for her creativity. Certainly, she uses her music as emotional catharsis for herself and her audience, but there is a hint of possibility that her true love is not the emotional experience of the moment but rather the transforming of it into music itself.
Amalia’s style is a harmonious blend of folk’s storytelling tradition and pop’s catchy, accessible melodies with influence from artists like Noah Kahan, Lizzy McAlpine, and Sabrina Carpenter. Her strength lies in her ability to craft lyrics that tell authentic stories, rich with imagery and emotional depth. In her newest single "Planting Seeds," she weaves a tale of resilience and perspective, exploring themes of simplicity, gratitude, and growth. Her lyrics inspire listeners to see the beauty in everyday moments and to find positivity even during difficult times. The song’s chorus, with lines like "Find the flip side of the coin with the pennies in your pocket" and "Don't stay busy pulling weeds when you can be planting seeds," showcases her ability to embed wisdom in poetic phrases. She grew up on the doorstep to California’s Big Sur, and her decision to study songwriting at Belmont University in Nashville flipped the script on her life’s trajectory by taking her to a very different place both musically and culturally, deepening her complex songwriting and immersing her in a subculture far different from the one in which she grew up. This blend of coastal tranquility and Nashville’s rich musical heritage continues to enrich her writing and influence her journey in the music industry. As she reaches new heights of creativity, she guides us all with melody to a better place of personal and cultural understanding.
