TALENTED AND EXPERIENCED MUSICIANS, THEY ENJOY PLAYING LOCAL FOR THEIR FANS AS WELL AS REACHING OUT TO NEW ADVENTURES ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BINGHAMTON NY. THEIR STYLE HAS BOTH A JAZZ AND BLUES FLAVOR WITH A VARIETY OF STANDARDS AND NEW COVER SONGS.
Jamie Willard is an acoustic finger-style guitarist who has performed internationally and is well known in his home town and worldwide for his beautiful original music.. myspace.com/jamiewillardguitar . Jamie has over 30 years experience as a versitile musician playing in country, folk,classical, jazz and blues genres. Jamie has composed the inncredible music you hear with JT Folk and Symple Measures. At a recent workshop, Jamie had an opportunity to play for fingerstyle guitar virtuoso Tommy Emmanuel, upon hearing Jamie play he said, “That’s brilliant” and praised Jamie as a gifted guitarist with a wonderful sense of melody. Jamie has open up for such artists as Diamond Rio, Toby Keith, Martina McBride and a host of others. These days Jamie is immersed in the world of fingerstyle guitar, but still has plenty time for his group Symple Measures and the duo JTFOLK.
T has been singing for most of her life and has had the opportunity of working with Medrick Studios for vocal training. Singing with a Christian folk group for several years gave T the love of folk/acoustic music. Working with Jamie, they began writing folk songs and formed JTFOLK which they continue to perform as a duo together. Together, one 3:00 in the morning time, they wrote COME A LITTLE CLOSER and there began the jazz/blues flavor that led to the band Symple Measures. An accomplished poet, she has been writing lyrics for both JT folk and Symple Measures.
TEAMING TOGETHER, BRINGING THEIR INDIVIDUAL TALENTS AND PASSION FOR MUSIC, YOU WILL FIND THE MIX OF JAZZ/BLUES/FOLK FROM THEIR EFFORTS TOGETHER, REFRESHING AND UNIQUE.
