Amethyst is the No. 1 Alternative Artist on Buzzplay.com

Singer Amethyst returned from the Middle East determined to make a difference in the lives of others. Her songs are a wake up call to all of us that lives can be changed when your own attitude about life improves.

Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) March 12, 2006 -- Amethyst is the No. 1 Alternative Artist on www.buzzplay.com (http://www.buzzplay.com/search_results.php?action2=search&m_style=ALT&submit2=Search)

but not so long ago she was just another soldier (http://www.amethystlive.com/Soldier.htm) playing for thousands of our soldiers in Uzbekistan, Kuwait, Quatar, Afghanistan and all the US camps in Iraq.

She was inspired to use music to heal by her collective life experiences. She wears a necklace that embodies her commitment to God - charms reading, "Faith," "Love," "Heal," "Inspire" and those are the what Amethyst stands for. In a word, Inspired could be taken to new depths in song writing. Singer/Songwriter, Amethyst, takes a step back in time to discover the dreams and aspirations of her Great Aunt Isabel (http://www.amethystlive.com/MissArizona.htm) from the song, "Miss Arizona" whom she believes inspires her to this day to write music for women who have a story to tell, a dream to live and a life from which to emerge victoriously.

Where one person takes music and writes abstract lyrics, Amethyst often writes ballads with a story entwined. One of those songs is the rising #7 hit on iacmusic.com in the Christian charts, called "Waterfall" (http://www.iacmusic.com/genre_chart.aspx?Genre=Christian%2fSpiritual)

The more people click on that song and listen, the higher she will move in the ranks.

Any listener could exude a positive message to uplift ones spirit and apply it to their own life when listening to her music. Her feeling is that when one person takes the time to share what God has given them, others benefit from it somehow. Amethyst said, " I learn from others every day of my life. I hope that someday I can be that same kind of help for someone."

She has enjoyed playing colleges like Biola College in La Mirada with other Christian Artists as they sang out against Poverty for the "Voices against Poverty concert and is looking forward to playing at Moorpark College March 17 and 18 of 2006, an autobiographical/dramatic set in the show, "Voices in my Head - an evening of music, drama and comedy skits" (http://www.amethystlive.com/concerts.htm).

Some of her inspirational songs, like "In A Balloon," which helps the listener to increase their self esteem and self image, are featured on Pittradio.net - and as the #1 Alternative song for the past 10 weeks will be featured at the Moorpark show. Possibly one of the most listened to songs she has recorded is "Wake Up Call." This song is featured in video format on her My Space site: http://www.myspace.com/amethystsong

Another one of her songs, "All Outta' Quarters," inspired us to not forget those in need daily and especially during the holidays. That message aimed to reach out and gain new inspiration to dig deep and put a little in the cup of the the man around the corner....because he's all out of quarters and losing his faith in mankind. She will be playing, "Better Days" a song speaking out against bullies on the playground at the Moorpark College show along with many other hits which are available on her album "Nostalgia" or will be soon on her new album, "Prisms."

Upcoming Concerts:
