About the Author

Amy Winehouse

Amy Jade Winehouse was an English singer-songwriter, known for her eclectic mix of various musical genres including soul, jazz and R&B.Winehouse's 2003 debut album did well, both commercially and critically, in her native Britain. It was nominated for the Mercury Prize. Her 2006 follow-up album led to six Grammy Award nominations and five wins, tying the record for the most wins by a female artist in a single night and becoming the first British singer to win five Grammys, including three of the "Big Four": Best New Artist, Record of the Year and Song of the Year. On February 14, 2007, she won a BRIT Award for Best British Female Artist; she had also been nominated for Best British Album. She won the Ivor Novello Award twice, among other prestigious distinctions. Winehouse created media buzz apart from her singing. Her distinctive style, most notably her former signature beehive hairstyle, spawned imitators and been the muse for fashion designers, most notably Karl Lagerfeld. The singer's struggles with drug and alcohol addiction, as well as self-destructive behaviour, became regular tabloid news from 2007. She and her former husband were also plagued by legal troubles that led to the cancellation of several tour dates. Her body was found in her London home on July 23, 2011.
