Amy Winehouse, cantante y compositora, nació el 14 de septiembre de 1983 en Londres (Reino Unido), en el seno de una familia judía y con tradición musical en el jazz.Se crió en los suburbios de Southgate, al norte de Londres, y sus primeros años escolares los pasó en el colegio 'Ashmole School'.A los doce años ingresó en la prestigiosa escuela de teatro 'Sylvia Young Theatre School', de donde fue expulsada antes de graduarse por 'no aplicarse' y hacerse un piercing en la nariz.Su amigo y cantante Tyler James le facilitó su maqueta a un productor musical y a los dieciséis años firmó su primer contrato con la discográfica Island Records, comenzando así su carrera profesional en el mundo del soul y del jazz.Debutó en el panorama musical en el año 2003 con su álbum 'Frank'. Este trabajo le valió una nominación en los Premios Mercury Music y un Ivor Novello Award en 2004, por su single 'Stronger than Me'.En 2006 publicó su segundo álbum, 'Back to black', en el que plasmó sus experiencias personales más tormentosas. Bajo la producción de Mark Jonson, con este disco consiguió actualizar los sonidos más tradicionales del soul.Gracias a los numerosos premios que recibió, la discográfica Universal reeditó el disco en formato lujo con un CD adicional que incluía ocho temas clásicos interpretados por Amy, como 'Cupid', del gran Sam Cooke, a ritmo de ska, o una versión acústica de 'To know him is to love him', de Phil Spector.En 2007 fue considerada la revelación musical del año, liderando la lista de ventas en todo el mundo con su segundo álbum 'Back to black', del que ha vendido hasta el 2008 más de seis millones de copias, y con el que ganó un Brit Award en la categoría de Mejor Artista Británica. Además su single 'Rehab' (rehabilitación) fue elegido 'canción del año' en los premios que concede anualmente la prestigiosa revista 'Mojo'.En este mismo año, la cantante obtuvo el premio 'Artist choice' (premio que deciden los cantantes) en los premios MTV Europe Music Awards, celebrados en Munich.En 2008 consiguió cinco premios Grammy, a 'Mejor Grabación', 'Mejor Canción del Año' (ambos por 'Rehab'), 'Artista Revelación', 'Álbum de Pop Vocal' y 'Mejor Artista de Pop Vocal'. La gala se celebró en Los Ángeles y la cantante británica no pudo asistir por problemas en la concesión de su visado, pero finalmente actuó vía satélite desde Londres.El 4 de julio de 2008 actuó en el festival 'Rock in Río Madrid', en Arganda del Rey, junto a otros artistas internacionales como The Police, Lenny Kravitz, Jamiroquai, Franz Ferdinand, Tokio Hotel, Alejandro Sanz o James Morrison.Su última gira europea, iniciada en junio de 2011 y que incluía un concierto en Bilbao el pasado 8 de julio, fue suspendida tras la actuación de Belgrado, el 19 de junio, en la que apenas pudo cantar y se tambaleó por el escenario.Amy es conocida también por sus excesos con las drogas y el alcohol, y por los problemas de su marido con la justicia, y ha sido internada en clínicas de desintoxicación en varias ocasiones.El 23 de julio de 2011 fue hallada muerta en su apartamento, en el barrio londinense de Camden. Como otras leyendas de la música (Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix o Janis Joplin), tenía 27 años.Biography's Amy Winehouse (English)
Born: September 14, 1983 in Enfield, EnglandYears Active: 00's Genre: R&B.Much can be said about the late Amy Winehouse, one of the U.K.'s flagship vocalists during the 2000s. The British press and tabloids seemed to focus on her rowdy behavior, heavy consumption of alcohol, and tragic end, but fans and critics alike embraced her rugged charm, brash sense of humor, and distinctively soulful and jazzy vocals. Her platinum-selling breakthrough album, Frank (2003), elicited comparisons ranging from Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughan to Macy Gray and Lauryn Hill. Interestingly enough, despite her strong accent and vernacular, one can often hear aspects of each of those singers' vocal repertoire in Winehouse's own voice. Nonetheless, her allure had always been her songwriting -- almost always deeply personal but best known for its profanity and brutal candor.
Born to a taxi-driving father and a pharmacist mother, Winehouse grew up in the Southgate area of northern London. Her upbringing was surrounded by jazz. Many of the uncles on her mother's side were professional jazz musicians, and even her paternal grandmother was romantically involved with British jazz legend Ronnie Scott at one time. While at home, she listened to and absorbed her parents' selection of greats: Dinah Washington, Ella Fitzgerald, and Frank Sinatra among others. However, in her teens, she was drawn to the rebellious spirit of TLC, Salt-N-Pepa, and other American R&B and hip-hop acts of the time. At the age of 16, after she had been expelled from London's Sylvia Young Theatre School, she caught her first break when pop singer Tyler James, a schoolmate and close friend, passed on her demo tape to his A&R, who was searching for a jazz vocalist. That opportunity led to her recording contract with Island Records. By the end of 2003, when she was 20 years old, Island had released her debut album, Frank. With contributions from hip-hop producer/keyboardist Salaam Remi, Winehouse's amalgam of jazz, pop, soul, and hip-hop received rave reviews. The album was nominated for the 2004 Mercury Music Prize as well as two Brit awards, and its lead single, "Stronger Than Me," won an Ivor Novello Award for Best Contemporary Song.
Following Winehouse's debut, the accolades and inquiring interviews appeared concurrently in the press with her tempestuous public life. Several times she showed up to her club or TV performances too drunk to sing an entire set. In 2006, her management company finally suggested that she enter rehab for alcohol abuse, but instead, she dumped the company and transcribed the ordeal into the U.K. Top Ten hit "Rehab," the lead single for her second, critically acclaimed album, Back to Black. Containing evocative productions from Salaam Remi and British DJ/multi-instrumentalist Mark Ronson, the album somewhat abandoned jazz, delving into the sounds of '50s/'60s-era girl group harmonies, rock & roll, and soul. The fanfare over the release was so great that it started to spill over onto U.S. shores; several rappers and DJs made their own remixes of various songs, not to mention covers by Prince and the Arctic Monkeys.
One month after Winehouse won Best Female Artist at the Brit Awards in February 2007, Universal released Back to Black in the U.S. The LP charted higher than any other American debut by a British female recording artist before it, and it remained in the Top Ten for several months, selling a million copies by the end of that summer. Just as in the U.K., she became the talk of the town, landing on the covers of Rolling Stone and Spin magazines. Not long afterward, though, Winehouse canceled her North American tour. Early reports revealed that she was entering rehab for alcohol and drug addiction, but her new management denied the claims, stating it was due to severe exhaustion. Her erratic behavior kept her and her new husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, in the tabloids constantly, on and off stages on both sides of the Atlantic, but in late 2007, American fans were finally given a chance to hear Winehouse's early work, with a slightly abbreviated (two songs removed and one added) version of Frank.
Unfortunately, the next four years were filled with drama, disappointment, and very little music. By 2009, her marriage had ended in divorce, she had repeatedly been arrested on assault charges and/or public order offenses, her struggles with substance abuse and mental health issues tragically played out in the press. Public performances turned into incoherent disasters, the worst of them posted to video-sharing sites for all to see. A track on the Quincy Jones tribute Q: Soul Bossa Nostra appeared in 2010, while a duet with Tony Bennett was announced in early 2011, but a planned follow-up to Back to Black would never make it past the demo stage. Winehouse was found dead in her Camden, London apartment on July 23, 2011. The coroner's report, delivered three months later, revealed that her blood alcohol content had reached a potentially fatal level.
Nearly two months after her death, Winehouse's first posthumous appearance was released on Tony Bennett's Duets II, where she dueted with Bennett on "Body and Soul." Near the end of 2011, her family's foundation announced the release of Lioness: Hidden Treasures, a posthumous compilation featuring recordings from throughout her career (although a few of the arrangements were recorded after her death).
