Amon Amarth began playing together in 1987. The group used to practice at the bassist's house. Amon Amarth began performing at Anyplace, a local club. The bassist was encouraged to play by his teacher.

Members of Amon Amarth see this tour as a chance to expose a whole new group of fans to their music. The band is in the middle of the tour accompanying for their latest album. Amon Amarth's newest release is the group's second project.

Amon Amarth’s first album did not do so well, but the second album was a hit, going platinum. The band plays almost every night of the week as the they tour the country. Amon Amarth was discovered after their single was heard on a local music hour on Q97.1. The group group played festivals, parties, bars, really just about anywhere that would take them.

Amon Amarth accepted that the possibility of living life as actual musicians was a real possibility after the group’s first fan club was started in 1994 by Jen Boughton. After playing across the world, the group’s fan club exploded from the handful of fans around Shelbyville to thousands in every city throughout the country.

Amon Amarth realizes that most fans like their previous songs, so they use material from past releases and the most current record. The group has always had a good time in Biloxi so they make sure to play there every year, even if they are not promoting anything.
