Amy Rigby is one of the most popular and richest American singer- songwriter who was born on January 27, 1959 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States. Amy Rigby (born Amelia McMahon, January 27, 1959) is an American singer-songwriter. After playing with several New York bands she began a solo career, recording several albums which had only modest sales despite enthusiastic reviews. She settled into a career of touring while raising a daughter, then formed a duo with Wreckless Eric whom she also married. As of November 2011 they continue to tour from a base in upstate New York. She is the author of a memoir, Girl to City.

In 1999 Rigby moved to Nashville to pursue a publishing deal, and continued to record and tour.

Rigby met Eric Goulding in Hull, England, where she was performing one of his songs. She later relocated to Cleveland, and in late 2006 moved to France with her second husband, Eric Goulding, also known as Wreckless Eric. In the fall of 2011 they moved back to the USA, settling in a town in upstate New York. She collaborated on albums with him.

In 2008 Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby was released. The album is described as combining various influences. The pair are touring to support the album.

Rigby released her first full-length recording under her own name, Diary of a Mod Housewife, in 1996. Village Voice critic Robert Christgau praised the album, calling it “concept album of the year”. Spin voted Rigby “Songwriter of the Year” for 1996. Middlescence and The Sugar Tree (like Mod Housewife, recorded for Koch Records), also were well received by critics and listeners. Koch also released Rigby’s compilation album, 18 Again.

Til The Wheels Fall Off, with its opening track, “Why Do I,” produced by Richard Barone, was released on Signature in 2003, and Little Fugitive in 2005. The weekly newspaper The Nashville Scene said that Little Fugitive “finds Rigby as sharp as ever, even as many of the songs evince the fuzz of dislocation…or the exasperation of a survivor who hasn’t lost her sense of humor but knows that jokes have their limits.”
