Tori Amos: Little Earthquakes

Tori Amos is an American pianist, singer-songwriter and composer.

From her early work in a band to a noteworthy solo career, she has had an immensely successful career and has achieved great heights in the world of music. She has never let her challenges, her own rebelliousness, creative or financial disagreements, or a record label's avarice, stand in the way of composing music in her own unique style.
