" Unquestionably, Jamie DeFrates is the ultimate folk artist, his soulful ballads are his tour de force. If I were voting for the Grammy's I'd submit Gypsy Valentine as a contender." - Entertaining U
Jamie DeFrates & Susan Brown met 10 years ago and have been singing together on stage ever since.
Jamie DeFrates has long been a favorite of the music community. With a career spanning 4 decades, he’s received 2 Emmy Awards for documentary scores, the Georgia Songwriter’s Association “Songwriter of the Year Award” and has written music for numerous theme park rides around the world. Jamie's songwriting skills are legendary, his voice is spectacular and he is a wizard on the guitar. Whenever he performs, the audience is absolutely spellbound. When you listen to Jamie, you might think that it doesn't get any better than this, but you would be wrong.
Add his lovely partner Susan Haines Brown to the equation, and you are taken to a whole new dimension by two voices that soar to impossibly beautiful places and land right in the center of your heart. Susan’s beautiful voice and songs will capture your ear, your heart and your imagination. In 2013, Susan’s song “My Florida” won 2nd place at the Will McLean Folk Festival. It’s no surprise that their music continues to win awards and that their performances receive rave reviews.
