You should be VERY PROUDAmazingly talented -- you gotta be great - solid songwriting, distinctive vocals, and that indefinable "star quality" are all part of the package. They're only interested in working artists - those that are touring, have substantial CD sales, strong internet presence, etc. This is very high bar, and it says a lot about your music & your presentation. Kudos to you!!!

Congratulations, Jamie!!! What a great collection of songs you have! Your vocals are right on, and a real pleasure to hear. Yeah, like the guys said... you are clearly going places. Hope we get to meet at the next Rally this November-- with this kind of track record, you will surely have a pile plenty of great news to share by then!!! So congratulations again to you-- this is a really great listing to be forwarded for, and I've got my bets on you getting picked up!! Sure, many of us are just trying to get our music on TV, but you are going to BE ON TV, I can just feel it. See you on tour soon!!!! Raags

I'm just so honored that you are taking the time to listen. I've been writing for so long! LOL.I have 3 new songs I'm recording in Nashville beginning on the 28th. The bass player for Sixwire (they came in second in "The Next Great American Band"), John Howard is cutting them as well as a couple guys from "Denver & The Mile High Orchestra" who came in 3rd on the show. It's an amazing honor to work with these guys. John has been in the house band of Nashville Star for a few years and has toured w/Faith Hill, Vince Gill, etc.I never EVER thought I'd get to this point...so I'm already happy! love and light,Jamie
