Tori Amos (born Myra Ellen Amos on August 22, 1963) is an American pianist and singer-songwriter. She is married to English sound engineer Mark Hawley, with whom she has one child, Natashya "Tash" Lórien Hawley, born on September 5, 2000. Having already begun composing instrumental pieces on piano, Amos won a full scholarship to the Peabody Institute at John's Hopkins University, the youngest person ever to have been admitted, at age five. She was expelled at age eleven for, in her own words, insisting on playing by ear and because of her interest in popular rock music. |

Independent -
'Thank you for coming to my local and having a pint with me," Tori Amos says by way of a greeting. "It's a piano bar, and I'm gonna play for you all night." That's the conceit, at least.
