Amy Winehouse

British singer and songwriter

Amy Winehouse was a British singer and songwriter (1983-2011). She worked as a session vocalist before releasing her debut album, Frank in 2003, earning a nomination for the UK’s Mercury Music Prize. For the 2006 follow-up, Back to Black — ranked at No. 8 on Apple Music’s 100 Best Albums List — she collaborated with producer Mark Ronson and Sharon Jones' backing band The Dap-Kings. Featuring indelible smash singles such as Rehab, Tears Dry on Their Own, You Know I'm No Good, and the title track, the album won five Grammy Awards in 2008 — equalling the then-record for most Grammys won by a female artist in one night.


After Winehouse’s death in July 2011 at age 27, a posthumous collection of unreleased songs and demos, Lioness: Hidden Treasures, was released and featured the duet with Tony Bennett, Body and Soul. Winehouse’s life was the subject of the Academy Award-winning documentary Amy (2015) and Sam Taylor-Johnson’s 2024 film Back to Black, starring Marisa Abela.
