2007 Poage Landing Days
Presents:
Jamie O'Neal
Jamie O'Neal's gift is her passion for life and for music. She writes songs with heart and intelligence, delivering them with casual elegance in what one critic described as "a Ferrari of a voice.
Exploding onto the country music scene with the devastating
end-of-love song, "There Is No Arizona," she set a high standard for
herself as both songwriter and singer. Her new album, Brave, more th
an
builds on that promise, as O'Neal confirms her strengths as a
singer's singer, but also makes impressive strides as a songwriter,
co-writing nine of the record's 11 songs. Sonically, she draws from
her eclectic musical tastes, with songs that run from showcase
ballads to swampy Southern rock. Lyrically, she explores struggle,
family, womanhood and spirituality displaying a deep understanding
of both the peaks and valleys that accompany a life fully lived.
One of the most important experiences of her youth was the chance to open and perform on the same stage as such significant performers as Johnny Cash, Crystal Gayle and Dolly Parton.
O'Neal nabbed a pair of #1 hits-"There Is No Arizona' and "When I
Think
About Angels'-and both of those titles earned her Grammy nominations
as a songwriter for "Country Song of the Year.' In addition,
"Arizona' brought a third Grammy nod for "Best Female Country Vocal
Performance.' The Academy of Couhusbntry Music named her the Top New
Female Vocalist, she sang on the soundtracks of Bridget Jones's
Diary and When We Were Soldiers, appeared on the Grand Ole Opry, The
Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Late Show with David Letterman.
She toured with Reba McEntire and Martina McBride, opened for Alan
Jackson, Kenny Chesney and Toby Keith.
