Biography

An English singer-songwriter, Amy Winehouse was celebrated for her deep, expressive contralto vocals and an eclectic fusion of musical genres. She skillfully merged soul, rhythm and blues, and jazz with a lyrical style rooted in raw, autobiographical confession. Her 2003 debut, 'Frank', was a critical success in the UK, but it was her 2006 album, 'Back to Black', that brought her global stardom. The album, featuring hits like "Rehab," won five Grammy Awards and defined a new wave of neo-soul. Winehouse's work is noted for its frank emotionality and revitalization of classic sounds, securing her influential status before her death at age 27.
