Amy Duncan is a songwriter, singer and multi-instrumentalist, playing double bass, guitar and piano. She has been pursuing her passion for songwriting since 2006 when ‘Pilgrimage’ was released on the US label Plain Recordings after they discovered her songs on social networking site ‘Myspace’.

Through Creative Scotland funding Amy was able to work with one of Scotland’s finest producers Calum Malcolm (Prefab Sprout, The Blue Nile) and ‘Cycles of Life’ was released on Linn Records in 2013. 'Undercurrents' (2016) was also funded by Creative Scotland featuring self written string arrangements played by members of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra.

‘The Hidden World’ (2020) and ‘Cocoon’ (2021) albums were self produced and released on Amy’s own label Filly Records and were played on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6 Music with sync placements on BBC3 and the Netflix version of Charmed.

As well as playing with other singer-songwriters, Amy’s bass playing always features on her own recordings. Collaborations include a harp and bass album released with composer Fiona Rutherford called ‘Quirk’ and back in the 90’s Amy played in the band Swelling Meg with frontwoman Cora Bisset.

Amy recently collaborated with award-winning director and writer Ben Harrison on ‘Undertow Overflow’, a Creative Scotland funded songs and short stories project which toured Scotland in October 2022. Alternating songs and short stories, Amy played upright bass, guitar and piano for Ben as he performed. The show gained 4 star reviews from Joyce McMillan at The Scotsman and Michael Cox at The Stage.
