Amanda Shires Releases New Song “Piece of Mind”
American singer-songwriter and fiddle player Amanda Shires will release her upcoming eighth solo album “Nobody's Girl” on September 26, 2025 via ATO Records.
From the album, she released the second single “Piece of Mind” on August 26, 2025, following ”A Way It Goes”.
The song explores themes of liberation from the past, survival, and clarity in the face of being dismissed.
It was written by Amanda Shires and produced by Lawrence Rothman, as with the previous song.
The accompanying music video was directed by Taylor G. Kelly.
Amanda Shires said of the song, “I wrote this song because I never got closure. I stayed in the house with all the things that couldn't be put back together. The grief came quietly, in moments. But so did the clarity. This song became the place I said everything I didn't get to say. Writing it gave me an ending. Not tidy. Not bitter. Just mine.”- The new album comprises 13 tracks, produced by Lawrence Rothman. She recorded the album at Sound Emporium Studios in Nashville and Rothman Recorders in Los Angeles.
The record is a meticulously crafted collection of songs spanning folk, rock, roots and country influences.
The album features Fred Eltringham on drums, Julian Dorio on drums, Jay Bellerose on drums, Dominic Davis on bass, Peter Levin on keyboards, Zach Setchfield on guitar, Pino Palladino on bass, Jimbo Hart on bass, and Joe Kennedy on piano. -
