In the UK, 1 in 4 women will experience domestic abuse at some point in their lifetime. On average, it takes 7 attempts to leave an abusive partner for good, and the most dangerous time for victims is when they try to leave. 20% of children in the UK have lived with an adult perpetrating domestic abuse, which means as many as 1 in 5 adults go out into the world and into new relationships, not understanding that this behaviour is abnormal and unacceptable. I was one of those children.
Inspired by my escape from an abusive relationship years ago, this song has come to represent the end of every toxic relationship I've left behind, and the risks survivors take to live in the truth that the only person who should ever get to decide what you do with your life... is YOU.
For the next month, 100% of profits from this song will go to the charities Refuge and Respect, who help people in the UK fleeing domestic abuse. No one should have to live with being controlled, abused, manipulated, or frightened by someone close to them.
This song is my tribute to the bravery and resilience of everyone who has walked away from an abuser. And it's my rallying cry, for anyone who needs to hear it, if you haven't yet taken that first step. It's going to be ok - please know that wherever you are, I see you, and I'll stand with you. You deserve better.
Have Courage.

Presenting "Courage" - the first single from my debut EP, Syzygy. This is a song about standing up for yourself, believing in yourself, and knowing that you are a survivor, even in your darkest hour. In the UK, 1 in 4 women will experience domestic abuse at some point in their lifetime. On average, it takes 7 attempts to leave an abusive partner for good, and the most dangerous time for victims is when they try to leave. 20% of children in the UK have lived with an adult perpetrating domestic abuse, which means as many as 1 in 5 adults go out into the world and into new relationships, not understanding that this behaviour is abnormal and unacceptable. I was one of those children.

Thank you for this!
Thank you. I was in an abusive home and even the victims were taking advantage of me as I'm a empathic person without boundaries due to gaslighting. As an adult I was in emotionally abusive relationships. Now I know what empath and narcissist is and people's manipulation tactics. My eyes are open and live happily alone, still healing.
This is one of the most creative pieces of harp solo writing (and performing, obviously!) I've ever encountered. Just incredible.
This is such an incredible display of musicality! The incorporation of percussive hits, harmonics, finger snaps, and other techniques really brought out the harp in its fullest. I really loved hearing the low resonating strings paired with the gorgeous high end melody as I don't often get to hear that part of the harp often. I also love the transition from dark to light in the video, reflecting the message of this piece. Really amazing composition, performance, and mix!
I love how you keep creating new, unexpected sounds with your instrument. Your playing is always inventive and fresh!

Thank you!
Wow, Amy, I‘ve loved your work for years, but this is a new dimension. This incredible flow and groove of the piece, so powerful. The second part of the filming, out in the open, in the light, after the darkness, and the message behind it from the video description had me in tears. It is such a strong statement. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
You are truly amazing, my 7 year old daughter listens to you every night before she goes to bed, we love to share your music together thank you so very much. ❤️❤️❤️
I love when a musician steps out of the box and lets creativity flow. Excellent composition and performance!
No words, just tears and smiles!
I’m so happy following you and discover this magical song. Thank you for sharing your scars with us for the sake of people who endure this things. And especially, thank you for your strength ❤
Wow ! This was Absolutely amazing 👏. Thank you Amy for your wonderful new presentation ❤. I hope everything is going well in Your Life 🌹💖🤩❣♥️. Mark Bensette Aux Bois 🇨🇦.
Such a powerful composition! Just as powerful as you are! I'm so happy for you, that you could escape from your abusive relationships! And I just have to say: Your skills are truly amazing! As a harp learner I am always so impressed by your use of techniques and your playing style! Fusing these complicated elements of percussion, strumming and the ton of flageolets together into this wonderful music. It's just impressive how skilled you are. You were in fact the person who gave me the biggest motivation to finally start taking harp lessons a few years ago... I really look up to you. I think your composition transports such a strong vibe, as it probably should, it transports courage (I can really feel it, I hope it doesn't sound weird. But that's something I often feel about your music.) You really captured it perfectly!!! Luckily, I didn't experience a toxic and abusive relationship, but for me, your piece strengthens me to be more careful. The message you are transporting is so important! Thank you so much for your amazing things your do Amy, you are wonderful! Have a beautiful day!
This is gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful. 🩷 Thank you.
Wonderful writing, and your impassioned playing is as impressive as ever! Awesome work Amy!

There's just so much in this song that is mindblowing. I don't know much about playing the harp myself, but I love all the details, the dynamic range, the muted strumming to add percussion... and all of this just on one instrument. Thank you for creating this, it's a joy to listen to.

I cannot stop listening to this. All night it’s been playing on my personal playlist. Truly beautiful.
I can barely tie my shoes, and here you are not only playing a harp, but doing percussion at the same time. This is awesome.
Everything about this piece is amazing! The technicality, the musicality, the beauty of the performance, the message... I had no idea about what you went through and it is very brave of you to share and stand for others. As a very beginner harpist and as a psychologist-criminologist, I now have double the admiration for you!! Thank you 🙏🤗
Bravo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I love listening to you play. Keep it up!
so great!
AMAZING!!! So creative, so fresh, so exciting! Have to watch the video more times just to see the movement of each hand... it´s delicious to watch all the movements! And the sound of the strings being part of the percussion is so satisfying to listen to!
Jesus that’s so complex and you’ve mastered it. Well done!
WOW !!!!!
Maestro! Percusion, overtones and overall musicality and usage of a harp. As a player and maker of celtic harps I deepely appreciate your art! I want you to play my harps =D Thank you, Tomáš
