Album Notes

This album features tracks from both independent Margaret's Daughter releases, "Simplicity..." and "Margaret's Daughter" available as a digital downloads.
If you want the physical CDs, please click the Margaret's Daughter and Simplicity links on the left.


Once upon a time, not so long ago, Margaret had a daughter. She called her Adri-Mari or Ami for short. Fast forward a couple of years and Margaret's Daughter has established herself as one of South Africa's top up&coming singer / songwriters. Along with indie producer / multi-instrumentalist Etienne Ghyoot, they recorded these two albums in his "home studio" (read: spare bedroom connected to his PC).

Incorporating different musicians as the need arises, the Margaret's Daughter moniker has become synonymous with great music; be it Ami on her own, Ami & Etienne as a duo or even as a full band. Whichever way they perform, one thing remains constant: Ami's timeless music and unique voice, accompanied by her rhythmic acoustic guitar playing.

A brilliant, great, superb, enjoyable, fab, CD! It's Good as well!
author: Rob Orton
I have now been listening to this cd for around 2 weeks solid! I have to say it did not disappoint when it arrived. I first heard their music on myspace, and after a few exchanged messages decided to buy! It is an extremely well recorded cd, and has a feel of quality about it, which for a small independently run outfit, without the money of the big labels is amazing. My favourite 2 tracks are "Backbeat" because it has a real deep bass that just annoys my neighbors so much and makes me smile! My other fave is because it just sticks in my head, and I walk around singing or humming it for hours after, and that is "Daydream", however picking a fave is so hard as they are all so good. I think this would now be a cd I would take to a desert island with me (of course this island has electricity), well that is until they do another cd! It gets 5 stars from me, I would have given more but it only went to 5! Buy it from the nice people at cd baby and enjoy it as much as I do!

This cd hasn't left my cd player for months!
author: charlie
I purchased this cd a few months ago, and it seriously hasn’t left my player! Well apart from to lend it to friends, in which they have all enjoyed it too. Each track is very well done, and for a 1st attempt at an album, I’m very impressed! I am a huge fan of the likes of sarah mclachlan, heather nova, lisa loeb, etc and this duo is certainly in the same league! Every track is well written and put together, amazing use of instruments and Margaret’s voice is amazing! The main two tracks that stand out for me is, Right beside me and Prayer. In fact Right beside me was on repeat in my car yesterday! I very much look forward to the next album. These guys are very talented and someone to look out for in the future! Charlie
