Jayme Kelly Curtis

"Speaking of her voice, some might compare Curtis' to pop star Jewel with all its sultriness and lightly peppered gusto. In reality, it's the other way around — Curtis is much more woman than Jewel." David Espinoza, Metro Santa Cruz

ABOUT:
"My goal as a songwriter is to create images that resonate strongly in the listener's mind where they can be freely interpreted through the lens of the listener's own experiences," says Curtis. "I try to place my personal experiences and snippets of stories into the framework of archetypal themes and mythologies. I try to use metaphor and imagery to move my subjects away from their narcissistic origins and into the universal. I draw from a wide variety of sources, including folk tales and dreams, the visual arts, religion and psychology. The key for me is not to tell, but to show. I think of my songs less as little movies than as aural paintings; some representational, others more abstract."
