Myra Ellen Amos was born on August 22, 1963, in Newton, North Carolina, to a Methodist minister and a homemaker mother. She is the youngest of three children. Ellen moved to a Maryland suburb at the age of one, when her family decided to relocate. She was referred by a friend that she looked more like a “Tori” while performing. It was hard to ignore the fact that young Tori had a great talent for playing the piano. By the age of four she was composing music on the piano. Two years later she was studying classic piano at the Peabody Institute at Baltimore’s Johns Hopkins University, becoming the youngest to attend the school. Tori was expelled from the school after performing her own compositions to the faculty. She apparently ad-libbing John Lennon and the Doors tunes. When she was 13-years-old she was performing at clubs, but this time playing jazz on her piano. Atlantic Records took notice and signed the then 24-year-old singer in 1987. She released an eponymous album with her hard-rock band, Y Kan't Tori Read, the following year. The album, however, was a commercial and critical disappointment and its failure sent Amos back to the musical drawing board. In 1992 she rebounded with her debut solo album, Little Earthquakes. The acclaimed CD contained 12 haunting, ultra-personal tracks; including the cut "Me and a Gun," on which Amos recounts the details of her own rape. A “fan” offered her a ride home after a show and raped her at gunpoint. The album was an international success, selling more than two million copies worldwide and establishing Amos as one of the most compelling female vocalists to emerge from the '90s. In 1994 Amos released her second full-length, Under the Pink, on Atlantic. The CD, which contained the hits "God" and "Cornflake Girl," debuted at No. 2 on the British album charts and went on to sell several million copies. Amos' ambitious third album, Boys for Pele, came out in 1996 and further solidified her extremely loyal, if somewhat frighteningly obsessive, fan base. In early 1998 Amos contributed a couple tracks to the Great Expectations soundtrack, returning later in the spring with her fourth full-length album, Songs From the Choirgirl hotel. In 2003, Amos released a best-of collection with new tracks such as “Snow Cherries From France”, “Mary”, and “Sweet Dreams”.
