An Austin, TX indigenous who was simply classically qualified on violin, Amy Farris discovered early into her lessons that she was a first-rate improviser. When Escovedo noticed the violinist could single like a brutal guitarist, Farris was packed into the vehicle and experienced the coast-to-coast life-style of a rock and roll & roller firsthand. She came back house to Austin and immediately became more associated with the city’s healthful music picture. Recordings and trips with Ray Cost, Tish Hinojosa, Bruce Robison, along with a six-year gig in Kelly Willis’ music group followed.
