The Christie Gee Podcast‪.‬ Christie Gee

I am psyched and honored to have the amazingly talented, ever so sweet (( see what I did there) and by far one of the coolest people I have ever talked with, Amy Fleisher-Madden on the show this week!

Amy founded the independent record label, Fiddler Records, in Miami, Florida when she was 16 years old. In her mind, it was a logical progression from her local fanzine. Before she could even vote she discovered and broke bands like Dashboard Confessional, New Found Glory, and several other indie darlings you may or may not have heard of. She oversaw the creative direction and released over 25 records—which is what fueled her desire to properly learn Art Direction at the world-famous Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. Upon completing her degree, Madden promptly moved to New York City to work as a Copywriter for an advertising agency. Having real-world experience with her own business helped her climb the ranks quickly, and she fast became a Creative Director working for what you could call ginormous brands.
And after nearly a decade of that hustle and bustle, Madden decided to try her hand as a freelance creative whilst writing a book. This worked out well, and her first novel A Million Miles was released in 2014 to rave reviews and has become a fan favorite in the music scene.
In 2022 Amy inked a deal with Chronicle Books to release NEGATIVES, a first-of-its-kind photographic archive of the emo music scene from 1996 to 2006, which will be released October, 24th!

I loved this conversation so much and I hope you do as well!
