Heart Medicine is a soulful reggae-pop woman-led band from Fort Collins, Colorado. The band focuses on making music about positivity, celebrating life even when life is hard, and smiling till your cheeks hurt. 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 the winter of 2014 in 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. When reviewing the 2015 self-titled album, 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. In addition to releasing several singles in 2023, including Watch Me, Special K, and Take Me Back, Heart Medicine also re-recorded several tracks from their Amy and the Peace Pipes, released in a compilation called Echoes of Peace. The band is preparing to return to the studio to finish a new album for a 2025 release. 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 piano-rock/reggae/alternative sound.
