Jamie Anderson is a confused folk singer who dabbles in several genres - witness the fun bluegrass romp of "Hurricane," the jazzy "Gone," and "Your Night Just Got More Interesting," an almost-pop number. For those who like their music political, there's "Beautiful," about body image, and "Felon," a less than kind look at North Carolina's weird laws. The title cut of A Promise of Light is a calming plea for peace; the disc even has a traditional folk tune, "Polly Vaughn," featuring a lovely fingerpicked guitar solo from Jamie. Even though her girlfriend says she should quit writing songs about food, she has written a song called "A Little Chocolate".

Touring nationally since the eighties, Jamie has played her warm and witty songs in hundreds of coffeehouses, concert halls, colleges and festivals all over the U.S. She's released seven albums including her newest, A Promise of Light, produced by Kiya Heartwood (Wishing Chair). Her music has been featured on the Dr. Demento radio show, Car Talk, and stations all over the world. Jamie loves being a full time musician, so she doesn't really park cars, but her mama said she should have something to fall back on.

When Jamie isn't touring, she's taught songwriting, guitar and other classes at Duke University, arts centers, privately in Durham and at festivals all over the country. Jamie is a freelance writer whose articles and CD reviews have appeared in Acoustic Guitar, SingOut! and more. In her spare time - she must have a clone -- Jamie is director for Women in Harmony, an annual music camp in the mountains near Asheville, NC.

Laughter is a big part of Jamie's live performance. Her offbeat song intros and stories help keep the performance fun but don't be surprised when she delves into more serious issues. She's emceed at many events and twirls the baton badly, sometimes at the same time. She's also a bellydancer and former radio DJ, never at the same time..
