Todd Kramer and Jamie Bendell Live!

Description

About Todd Kramer:
After spending almost three years honing his songwriting craft, Todd Kramer released his first studio EP, One Pair of Eyes, in March 2012.

The five-song album takes us on a journey from Todd’s Connecticut roots to the New York City musician he is today – a journey filled with mixed emotions.

The main theme of One Pair of Eyes is moving on. Moving on from youth, moving on from relationships, moving on in life. Perhaps no song better exemplifies this than the title track, where Todd regrets his inability to get over a young relationship (“I was living in the past, looking for some greener grass”) before finally looking forward to what’s ahead for him (“Now I’ve got both eyes on this unpaved, unbeaten path”).

It’s the way he combines his pensive lyrics with upbeat rhythms and inescapable melodies that makes Todd’s writing unique and interesting. His music is simple, transparent and, most importantly, honest. It’s hard to miss what he’s trying to say, and even harder not to relate.

Todd comes from Woodbridge, CT and studied at Syracuse University, where he began writing songs. His musical influences include many contemporary Pop/Americana singer-songwriters, notably Ryan Adams, Stephen Kellogg and John Mayer.

About Jamie Bendell:
Endearingly melodic singer-songwriter pop with inflections of americana, folk, and soul.

With her sweet demeanor and soft-spoken voice, Jamie draws people in with unforeseen strength and passion shown in both her vocal performance and songwriting abilities.

Growing up, the Bendell Family always had a song to accompany each part of the day. There were wakeup songs, and songs for the day, songs for playtime and songs for clean up. There were songs at meal times and songs about getting wrinkly after staying in the bath for too long. Then, there were the goodnight songs, not forgetting River of Dreams that played on repeat in Jamie’s bedroom, every single evening. It’s pretty safe to say that one of the reasons Jamie has decided to follow her dreams of pursuing a career in music is because she has grown up surrounded by a myriad of melodies.

After graduating from Emory University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration, Jamie didn’t even consider looking for jobs related to her studies. Instead, she packed up her car and made the 14-hour drive back up to New York City. Having recently completed a four song EP recorded at The Gallery, then a five song EP, and now another three song EP recorded at JRock Studios, Jamie has been spending as many nights as possible frequenting the music scene around Manhattan, and playing both solo and full band shows across the US.
