    Poor poor woman. I had no idea that happened. It’s completely understandable why she disappeared. That’s so horrifying and I’m so sad her life has been made so hard by awful people who had access to her. I hope she is finding peace and justice.

    I was her main guitar player while she was on the local band scene, before she made it big. We lived just across the road from each other and wrote/played every day for years. I haven’t heard from her in many years, I really hope she’s doing ok.

    I loved Duffy i got that album in my senior year of HS and yes i was already a massive Amy fan who became one of those huge artists to bring that back. As a 60s fan of music fashion etc which in the late 2000s early 2010s had a major re-insurgence, i was sold. Very talented. I always wondered what happened to her. Im glad she’s ok and just doing her whatever it is that makes her safe and happy ❤ Ps: appreciate you always talking about vast type of artists that some may not even know about and research about it it to share on here 🙏🏾

I couldn't even imagine what it would be like to endure and then try to recover from that. I saw that she recently posted on her Instagram again and glad she is finding her strength and courage to come back around. She has such a unique style of music and a beautiful/soulful voice. Hopefully, she will be able to release music again. She has so many fans in awe of her and would love to hear it and see her preform again

    When Duffy and Amy popped up with the 60's soul style music in the mid 2000's, they were not the first to do this. The Scottish band Texas was already doing it with the album "White on Blonde" in 1997 and "The Hush" in 1999. "Redbook" kind of continued it but that had a little more disco influence. And they have been doing their own version of that style since and still to this day.
