Tori Amos Bio
Myra Ellen Amos is an American singer-songwriter, pianist and composer who built a musical legacy with her unique approach to weave 70s classical style into 90s alternative rock music. Born on August 22, 1963, in Newton, North Carolina, United States, Amos became the youngest student at Johns Hopkins University at the tender age of 5.
