Amy Roth - Oct 04
This months Lamp artist spotlight shifts over to longtime Lamp soloist and Vocal staff member: Amy Roth.
No stranger to Gospel Music, Amy has sung with many CCM artists before being introduced to Southern Gospel through her later experience with The Nelons. After singing with the likes of Alvin Slaughter, Babbie Mason, and others, Amy Roth was thrust right into the heart of the Gospel Industry when she accepted the soprano position with the Nelons in the early 90’s. As basically a newcomer to SG, Amy still jokes about the time her dad (and manager Jim Roth) called her and told that she had gotten a call for an audition with a group called “The Nelsons!”
Delivering energy and excitement in their concerts for over 5 years, Amy met many people and SG fans all over the country; winning their hearts with her crystal-clear vocals, captivating smile, and warm Christian personality!
After completing her tenure with the Nelons , Amy has continued her work through her dynamic and rather busy solo ministry- Amy’s Ministries for the past 5 years. A popular guest soloist and campmeeting / revival singer, Amy has been extremely blessed since being introduced to the Southern Gospel genre merely just 10 years ago.
“Every year God is opening more and more exciting new doors,” said Amy recently. 2004 has even been more eventful than ever as Amy and husband, Steven welcomed a new addition to their family in the form of Katy Helyn born on January 7.
You could even say that Katy Helyn has already proven to be inspirational to the ministry - - Amy’s latest project on Lamp’s Gospel Heritage label is titled, “Little Blessings” a collection of Gospel lullabys and childrens hymns.
“In all of my career, this project was a first for us at Lamp,” says Lamp President, Mike Pillow, “as far as we know it has never been done in Southern Gospel. If you can picture the soothing voice of Amy Roth, singing lullabys – it would be easy for anyone to be sung to sleep! Ha.” He continues, “All humor aside, it is an excellent project and many folks have got them for grandkids, relatives, even those whose children are grown – it’s a really great concept!”
2004 is continuing to hold some exciting, special events for Amy, as the stage is already set for the First Annual Amy Roth Homecoming Concert at her home church – Lost Mountain Baptist in Powder Springs, GA. Where she sings in the choir and is as active as possible.
Her homecoming concert is October 15th and will feature: The Florida Boys and Pure Harmony of Gainesville, GA. All are invited to attend. For event info: amyroth.net

Amy also divides her time singing with a trio from North Georgia called, “Pure Harmony.” They are also getting quite a bit of attention in their own right, including an awesome recent performance during the NQC Artist Spotlight showcase. The group, led by popular area promoter, Wayne Bartlett will also be featured on Amy’s Homecoming concert in October.
