Amelia Ransom

Amelia Ransom is a multi-instrumentalist/songwriter who grew up near Boulder, Colorado, and later moved to Nashville, Tennessee. After studying classical violin for about five years, she saw a PBS special about bluegrass music, which introduced her to a world outside of her classical studies. The show included performances by Alison Krauss, Ricky Skaggs, Del McCoury, Nickel Creek, and so many other amazing musicians. After that, bluegrass and folk music quickly became her passion, and within a few years she had added mandolin, guitar, and many other instruments to her “arsenal.” Fast forward to present day–she is living in Nashville, TN where she splits her time between touring/recording (in the same band with her brother and sister), working in the “biz” on Music Row, and hiring out for gigs/sessions with other artists in Music City.
