Heart Medicine

Heart Medicine is a soulful reggae-pop band from Fort Collins, Colorado. The band focuses on creating music that celebrates positivity, life's challenges, and the joy of smiling, even in the face of adversity. Don’t be surprised when Amy’s heartfelt lyrics and captivating vocals leave you wanting more.

Heart Medicine was initially formed as Amy in the Peace Pipes in frontwoman Amy Russell’s effort to expand her solo piano/vocals into something that could encapsulate the energy and passion of her vulnerable lyrics. Music has been a powerful outlet for Amy that has given her a voice for the pain she has endured through abuse and betrayal, channeling it into a message of hope, triumph, and love. Scene Magazine wrote, “The lyrics are often personal and are seemingly always accompanied with a message of optimism.” Heart Medicine established itself throughout northern Colorado, playing over 100 shows across the Front Range.

Heart Medicine continues to promote the realization of inner beauty and self-worth, conquering adversity, and embracing the optimism that lies in the unknown through its unique blend of piano-rock/reggae/alternative sounds.
