About this user

Jamie Drake has become a familiar name in Los Angeles. First known on the scene for her "Year Long Residency" at the legendary Crane's Tavern "Beachwood Rocker" night where she set a goal to play every week showcasing new material, inviting musicians up without prior rehearsal and even audience members onto the stage to sing-along with what became her theme song, "Plumbline."

Known for having the ability to laugh at herself and entertain with ease as well as draw out deeper emotions from her listeners, Jamie makes one laugh or cry depending on the spirit and theme of the show. "Jamie is truer to the roots of those 70's-inspired styles than any Hollywood pixie out there... Vaguely reminiscent of Jenny Lewis on stage with her motley band but with a sharpers quality of voice. Closer to Adele, Florence & the Machine and other current British favorites, Drake's vocals sway and quiver at their hardest, glide and wrench at their most vulnerable." - Marianna Bell (moviesmusicmayhem)

2010 was an electric, debut year for Jamie: Recognized by veteran A&R guru Michael Rosenblatt (Madonna, Depeche Mode, New Radicals etc.), crowning her winner of a first ever LP33.tv "Studio Fast Track" contest, which led to a partnership with "Pledge Music" (Benji Rodgers) to help finish the efforts of releasing her debut album by calling on fans to donate toward the project that was her album, "When I Was Yours." Jamie stumbled onto the Hotel Cafe scene and made her presence known by singing back up for resident artists. She headed to SXSW and had a knock down drag out showcase with The Brother Sal. May 25th brought the release of "When I Was Yours," making it available to the world on iTunes, Amazon and Digstation.

"Mercurial songs like the defiant Plumbline, the ethereal Beautiful and the spectral Being Alone recall the past and present poles of the rustic cow-blues of Bob Dylan (circa John Wesley Harding) and J Tillman... there's very little on this album that sounds remotely "modern" and would sit nicely amongst a playlist of Judee Sill, Karen Dalton, Sandy Denny and the Roches. An accomplished album from an intriguing singer-songwriter. One to keep an eye (and ear) on." -powerofpop

Jamie was invited back to the Hotel Cafe for an August "The Drake Resides" residency where she experimented with full band, electric guitar and a choir of singers including members of "Parson RedHeads" and others. Jamie always aims for a new experience for her audience and recognizes that "as a listener, you need to feel something every time you hear a song, not just a catchy little tune that will soon annoy you, as it becomes overplayed. You deserve something that moves you, something you can revisit several years from now and still connect with, songs that are themselves a holistic piece of art. Jamie Drake gives you that." - Colette Weintraub (rockisagirlsbestfriend).

Jamie finished the year off with a west coast tour, enjoyed her first Asian residency in Singapore, and killed her first effort at New York's beloved Rockwood Music Hall. "Jamie is an artist that can, and will, be around for a long time... she will be an important artist that you should all run to discover." -Michael Rosenblatt
