About Tori Amos
Tori Amos is a renowned American singer-songwriter and pianist known for her unique mezzo-soprano vocals and her versatile songwriting style. She started composing instrumental pieces on the piano from a young age, and even won a full scholarship to the prestigious Peabody Institute at Johns Hopkins University at the age of five, making her the youngest person ever to be admitted. However, her scholarship was later discontinued due to what was described as “musical insubordination”. Amos later achieved breakthrough success as a solo artist in the early 1990s, with her hit singles such as “Crucify”, “God”, and “A Sorta Fairytale”.
