Born
in Beirut, Lebanon, AMANDA JO ABIZAID moved to The United
States when she was nine years old. She learned how to
harmonize as a child by singing a wide range of music
with her four older sisters. For many years, Amanda studied
piano and flute with private teachers. She continued to
perfect her talents at The Catholic University of America,
majoring in drama and music. She has also lived and modeled
in Wash. D.C., New York, Miami and London before moving
to Los Angeles.
Amanda co-started and fronted the band "BLUE"
that performed regularly in and around the Los Angeles
area. Now as a solo artist, Amanda Abizaid performs her
unique songs on piano and guitar and also with her band.
Her original musical compositions include flute and violin
parts that add an Arabian flavor to her poetic and classic
songwriting: a mixture of sultry/soulful vocals and haunting
melodies. Her debut EP Album, "The Great Plan",
Vol. I, was independently released last Summer 2004 and
is sold internationally at www.CDBaby.com along with her
first single "Lebanon", a song about the political
freedom currently emerging in her native country.
She was the singing voice for Ally Sheady and Carisma
Carpenter on VH1's show "STRANGE FREQUENCY",
and has sung songs for WB's "CHARMED", "SUMMERLAND",
"SMALLVILLE", Paramount's "THE 4400"
(theme song, "A Place In Time"), and many more.
Her feature film vocal and songwriting credits include,
"3 BELOW" and "FACING THE LION". She
performs regularly at Genghis Cohen, The Derby and Tangier
Lounge in Los Angeles. She has just finished the follow
up to "The Great Plan", Vol. II, which is set
to be released this Fall 2005.
