Lee has no trademark style with the "Faux Gothic". She dyed her hair jet black, though her hair is actually light brown. She dyed her red in 2013 until 2016, when she dyed it back to black.<ref name=redhair /> She chopped her hair off in late 2008 and showed her new haircut during her ''[[Legends & Lyrics]]'' performance in February 2009.

Many fans praise Lee for her refusal to emulate other celebrities by using sex appeal in her music. She has stated on a number of occasions that she would never flash her breasts or engage in other publicity stunts that would draw attention to herself. In fact, in the music video for [[Everybody's Fool]], she aimed to mock such artists by suggesting celebrities who use sex to appeal to an audience are, in fact, merely peddling "lies" (the unifying theme of the music video).<ref name=vh1film />


In her personal life, she enjoys being a girl. Her clothing style is quirky and marked by her frequent use of not-so-goth clothes (she stated in an interview with AOL that she was wearing "something floral"). She explains it as a professional thing, saying that her image onstage is so different from her normal clothes because it completes the image; if she were to come out onstage in pink boots and a track suit and sing about despair, it would totally ruin the image.

Amy Lynn Hartzler

Amy Lee (born Amy Lynn Lee on December 13, 1981 in Riverside, California) is the co-founder, lead singer and primary songwriter of Evanescence. Her family moved around the US a lot to places such as West Palm Beach, Florida and Rockford, Illinois, before finally settling down in Little Rock, Arkansas, where Evanescence was formed. She is the main songwriter and provides the image for the band as well as doing most of the interviews. Amy and Ben Moody met at a summer camp in Little Rocky in 1994, where she played Bach, Beethoven, Mozart and two measures of a Meatloaf song on the piano.[1][2] After that, the rest is history.

Signature of Amy Lee

Amy designs many of her own clothes, including those worn in the music video for "Going Under"[3] and the dress she wore at the 2004 Grammy awards. After she designed it, she chose Japanese designer H. Naoto to make it for her.[4] In the early days, she also used to make some of her clothing. In concerts, she often wore a corset and fishnets, but she abandoned corsets in the 2011-12 Evanescence album tour, with Amy saying with an interview with VEVO Stylized that she has become more confident on stage since the early days.[5] Amy used to have a piercing on her left eyebrow, which she had taken out and re-pierced a few times, but later removed it permanently in mid-2005.

Kerrang magazine readers voted her #1 Sexiest Rock Woman, with Hayley Williams from Paramore coming in 2nd.

Amy Lee was honored with the National Music Publishers' Association Songwriter Icon Award for 2008. She received the award on June 18 in New York City.[7] This award is very privileged as only one person gets it per year out of the whole music industry. She also performed for them. The Icon Award recognizes outstanding songwriters for personal achievement and who personify the vision of NMPA and the goals of its members. Former recipients include Jimmy Webb and Neil Sedaka.

Amy Lee attended the Betsey Johnson Spring 2009 Fashion Show on September 9, 2008.

Amy got her first tattoo on May 24, 2018 in tribute to her late brother, Robby Lee.

Her vocal range is mezzo-soprano.[8][9]

Solo Career

Amy in October 2009

In October 2008, Amy said during an interview with Spin that she had begun writing songs which she described as "definitely different", citing folky and Celtic influence. She stated that she needs to show that she is "more than a one trick pony" and that she is going back to her "really old roots". She said that it is nothing that she would "categorize as Evanescence".[10] In an interview with The Gauntlet, she said that she doesn't know what she is writing new songs for.[11] In another interview with Spin in 2010, during the time Amy was working with Steve Lillywhite on Evanescence's third album, she said that nothing from the material she mentioned in the 2008 interview will be on the new album.[12]

Later in 2011, during an interview with Billboard, she said that while the material made with Steve Lillywhite was scrapped, they may end up on future projects someday.

Vin1.jpg I think that some of those songs aren't right for Evanescence. Some of the songs that we had at that time could maybe be a solo thing in the future. We really do have a lot of extra songs from that time and also songs that the band wrote together; we just wrote a ton in the past few years and especially in the last one year. My head is totally focused on Evanescence right now, but I think it's totally possible that some of those songs will end up on different projects someday -- maybe solo, maybe something else.[13] Vin2.jpg


However, she revealed in 2015 that the album produced by Lillywhite was scrapped by her label and that she "was told that none of the songs I'd been pouring my heart into for a year, in any form, were good enough." She was forced to start over and release what we know now as the self-titled album.[14] She further said she owns those unfinished recordings, adding she plans to finish some of the scrapped songs and release them someday.

On December 1, 2013 Amy announced that she and Dave Eggar scored an independent film called War Story. The soundtrack album, titled Aftermath, was released in August 2014.

In 2015 she scored Hammerstep's short film Indigo Grey: The Passage.

In 2016, she released a covers EP, Recover, Vol. 1, as well as her second solo album, Dream Too Much, a children's album that was inspired by her son Jack. The following year she released two stand-alone singles, Love Exists and Speak to Me, the latter being the end title song of Voice from the Stone. She also scored the 2017 film Blind, and its soundtrack album was released in January 2018.

Social Efforts

Out of the Shadows

In 2005, Amy became a spokesperson for the Epilepsy Foundation and launched a campaign called Out of the Shadows. The goal is to help spread awareness about epilepsy and to encourage people to not discriminate against people with epilepsy. This campaign is important to Amy, as well as her family, because her younger brother had epilepsy and she has seen first hand the effect it has.

To Write Love in Her Arms

Amy is supporting To Write Love on Her Arms, a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. Her husband, Josh Hartzler, has a counseling background.[15] Amy was wearing a T-shirt of the movement on November 12, 2007, in Nissan Live on Yahoo! Music.

UN Haiti Relief Effort

On January 22nd, 2010, Amy announced on her Twitter account the release of "Together Again" to the public, after the Haiti earthquake events - "Today @Evanescence is releasing a new song, Together Again, and the proceeds are going to help Haiti! Details to follow!". If you were to donate at least five dollars or more, you would receive this song. According to Amy, the song successfully raised over $31,000 in its first week of availability.

Restore Freedom

In 2010 and 2012, Amy supported Restore Freedom to help the campaign against sex trafficking and for the construction of the first "safehouse" in NY, to host the victims of sex trafficking. In the Restore Freedom official website, Amy had a personal page where it was possible making a donation to support the project.[16] The campaign raised over 125,000$. She also donated a piano to the safehouse and taught music to the survivors.[17] Her involvement with the organization inspired her to write My Heart is Broken.

She later revealed that she had written Together Again (previously referred to as The Narnia Song) and part of Lacrymosa for the initial concept film, which producers had originally said would be in the vein of Lord of the Rings, and she used part of The Narnia Song instrumental she wrote as the intro to Good Enough.[21] The latter two songs were included on The Open Door, and the former was released as a charity single in 2010.

Amy covered the song Halfway Down the Stairs for the album Muppets: The Green Album, released on August 23, 2011. The cover song was recorded in 2009 and the album was intended for a 2010 release,[23][24] but it was finally released in 2011.

Amy joined Lzzy Hale on stage to duet on Break In several times whilst they were on the Carnival of Madness tour in 2012. On July 31, 2020, a studio version of the duet was released as the first single off Halestorm's Reimagined EP.

She also uses a stand-alone Baldwin keyboard and Shure Microphones. She has used a Kurzweil and a Yamaha digital piano during the Fallen Tour. She's also been using a Roland RD-700sx keyboard since 2009. She uses a Korg synthesizer attached to her piano since 2012 when she performs Swimming Home.

In her home studio, she uses ProTools, Dynaudio speakers and a US7 mic that was used to record vocals on Fallen, plus plug-in softwares, a Akai Midi keyboard and various keyboards.[27] She also has a theremin and a Moog Taurus synthesizer.[28]

At the 50th Grammy Awards, Amy disclosed that she was learning to play the harp, practicing two hours a day.[29] She was taught by Kirsten Copely, who later performed on Evanescence's fourth album, Synthesis.[30]

Vin1.jpg Hey guys!

I can't believe I'm saying this but.....
I've decided to try out the twitter thing. I think it might be a fun way to stay in touch better and I know I need to announce myself on here because there are so many other 'me's.' My name on twitter is AmyLeeEv. I can't guarantee I'll have anything interesting to say but if you're really bored and need a distraction, why not follow me? Actually, I think I haven an idea for my first tweet. How about I spill the first little surprise I've been holding onto? See you there!
