#AmyWinehouse had such a phenomenal gift and touched so many lives. My dear friend #RonnieSpector (@RonnieSpectorGS) would pay tribute to Amy during our tours by singing ‘Back to Black,’ saying: “I’d like to thank Amy for reminding me that what I did mattered.” Both sadly missed.
Not a day goes by without thinking of Amy. Join us in sharing your most treasured memories... 🖤

A musician’s gotta do what a musician’s gotta do to recover from a set. Could’ve used an ice chair myself after many a show! 🥵🧊 #CoolCats #cooldown #musicianslife
One way to cool off after a hot set at the NOLA River Fest.
