Jammie Jolly

Jammie Jolly, a dynamic and talented singer / songwriter / musician and native of Jacksonville, Florida, has brought his many years of experience to the table that is gospel music. Coming from a complete, lifelong background of gospel, Jolly was able to take hold of his relationship with Christ, and his gospel style at a young age. Jolly has taken many of his personal experiences with the Lord and wishes to share them with the world. This fast-rising man of God gives credit to HIM alone for the new doors that are opening up with his music.
Jolly has a long line of musical experience from which he draws many of his strengths. His musical and faithful background comes from his humble church beginnings in Florida. After serving our country honorably in the Navy, Jolly continued in his pursuit of music. Many haven't heard his name, and in fact, there are those who are typically shocked to hear the voice that he's able to propel in music. As a member of the vocal group VOR (Voice of Reason), Jolly's experience as a performer took him to another level of performance. VOR began showcasing their acapella-inspired style alongside other local groups in and around the Tampa area, and further lent their talents to various civic, college, and charity events. Their talents led them to their first album, self-titled VOR.

By the grace of God, however, Jolly was brought back to his gospel roots. Since 1996, Jolly has made NYC his home. His surrendering to the Lord's will has brought him back to his square one -- but this time -- being fully clothed in the armor of God! Jolly is a member of the International Christian Center located in Staten Island. He began seeking the Lord to inspire his song writing, and the Lord responded -- bringing the hearts of committed people into Jolly's life. He began working with equally anointed and talented musicians, composers, and engineers. Each member brings their own dynamic to Jolly's current project: So Strong! It's an amazing thing to see what the Lord has done in such a short amount of time. From humble beginnings in his home studio to the production of his first CD, Jolly realizes the blessing that the Lord has bestowed on him, and acknowledges that "with God, all things are possible." His style has been influenced by gospel, inspirational, jazz and funk, Motown, blues, and the best of urban pop. His ability to infuse these genres into his own style is what makes him unique.

A soft-spoken person, Jolly knows that he is truly blessed -- many plaques of honor and recognition adorn his walls, but those things are no value when the work of God is concerned. A generous soul by nature, Jolly is happy when others have what he has -- the joy of the Lord. This is his goal through music, and it means a lot -- especially in this day and age where "stars" forget where they came from. Jolly is truly an up and coming, rising star and will give back to his community.

Jolly is in the process of working on several new projects that involve some very talented people in the church. He has made plans to work on a tour that will include his brother, the Dr. Reverend Kevin Jolly, and the minister of music, Jerome Jolly. Both of his brothers are also very talented young men who are involved with the ministry.

It is Jolly's prayer that he will continue to create music that will touch the world. He believes that God has called him for such a time as this to reach the poor, and the disheartened. With God's grace and provision, he has plans of starting up several organizations that will enable him to do so.
