Quotes: "To me, it's all about making people feel something, especially better. Because if you  
sing with your heart, that's where the connection comes. And if you can't sing from the heart,
you might as well not waste the breath." Amanda Wilkinson of The Wilkinsons has this to say  
of the group's recent success, "People keep telling us that this is not the way things usually  
happen -- fortunately we don't know the difference." 
"It's like Jerry Springer on ice." Amanda Wilkinson (on real hockey)  

"What an awesome lady!  She's blessed with a sweet voice that was made 
to sing country. Amanda leads the group with her amazing vocals.  
Amanda's voice paved the way for The Wilkinsons' stardom. It's  
almost hard for me to believe that such a mature voice is coming from 
this 19 year-old's petite frame.   
She's very mature for her age, and  she has patience and talents of someone  
much, much older.  Her sweet voice and smile broke many young men's heart.  
I got to see her performed TWICE in the same day.  What a performance!"
