Amy Courts
After more than a decade of dreaming, writing, planning, and deferring, and nearly a year back and forth between Nashville and Minneapolis studios, married duo Amy Courts and Paul Koopman's released their debut collaborative record in 2017.
After receiving a call from their the spring of 2015, their dear friend/producer/musical hero, Jim Reilley (The New Dylans) asking for more music, Paul and Amy set to work. Having spent the previous five years focused intently on everything but making new music – parenthood, day jobs, home ownership, church music – they had none. But when their (then) 5-year-old, Elijah, came up with the best band name ever –Fireworks on Ferris Wheels – they committed to writing a new album. With the help of hundreds of friends, family, and fans who crowdfunded the full creation process, they compiled ten of their best songs yet, including fresh takes on two of their favorite cover songs, “Lovesong” by The Cure and “Anthem” by Leonard Cohen. |
The songs trace 11 years of marriage, some incredible highs, deeper lows, and land with them where they are right now: Committed to connecting with community through the power of song. They hope you love listening to the music as much as they loved making it. Now available at Bandcamp and everywhere digital music is played.
