Amanda Shires finds her "Piece of Mind" in a poetic release of healing and clarity

American singer-songwriter Amanda Shires, known for her incredible talent with the fiddle, is making waves in the modern Americana music scene with her new single "Piece of Mind." This song is the second release from her eagerly awaited eighth album, "Nobody's Girl," which will come out on September 26th, 2025, under ATO Records. After her earlier song "A Way It Goes," which reflects on deeper themes, Shires returns with "Piece of Mind," a track that feels both personal and grand, exploring the journey of moving forward from the past and finding strength despite challenges.


Co-produced by Lawrence Rothman, who also worked on her previous single, "Piece of Mind" is a delicate yet powerful look at achieving personal closure. Shires's songwriting shines through with its intimate honesty, as she shares experiences of loss and the complex feelings that come with it. In her own words, she describes the song as the place where she said everything she had failed to say, highlighting that writing it helped her find a resolution that feels authentic to her own experience.

The song blends Shires's skillful fiddle playing with gentle, striking sounds that allow her voice to stand out beautifully. The music unfolds gradually, creating a sense of discovery. There's a specific space between the notes that gives listeners room to breathe, tying back to the song's themes of freedom and finding peace with past experiences.



The song's reflective mood is matched by a music video directed by Taylor G. Kelly, which adds a visual layer to Shires's journey of reclaiming her emotions. The video captures both dark and hopeful elements, mirroring the song's message and showcasing the power of storytelling in music, even when it touches on complex subjects.
