Editor's review

Those who fear for the soul of slick, modern Nashville ought to check out this South Carolina-bred songstress. Andrews ably mixes the laid-back feel of an open-mic night (read: bongos and tambourines) with gentle acoustic guitar and sweetly sung country-soul melodies.

Biography

Jasy Andrews is set to release her debut record "Little Girl" on October 11th. The Nashville-based singer/songwriter and Versailles Records recording artist is a true star waiting to be born. Visually and vocally beautiful, Jasy's songwriting is the true treasure listeners will discover upon hearing her debut album, Little Girl. This double-album features radio-ready singles including "I'll Do That Much,? "Little Girl," "Keep It Up" and "I'll Be There For You." Jasy Andrews" intimate live show is as dazzling as it is enrapturing. Her musical influences include Dar Williams, Sarah McLaughlin, Tori Amos, and Pink Floyd among others. Little Girl is the product of the last 10 years of my life writing songs. "I see music in colors when I write, so each song on this album represents a different shade of the female emotional experience, be it pain or happiness, in love and in life." This album is in many ways a soundtrack to the world I see around me." Each of the 18 songs on this record tells a different story that autobiographically speaks for someone, so I believe there's something for everyone to relate to." Jasy Andrews Jasy's Story: Jasy began taking classical voice lessons at 16 in Anderson, SC. She attended Converse College in Spartanburg, SC where she received a Bachelor of Music degree in Voice Performance in 2001. Though her principle areas of study were classical music, theory, diction, foreign languages and opera, Jasy began writing pop/ folk songs on the acoustic guitar during her freshman year. She spent her freshman and sophomore years performing around campus, before she began transitioning into a focus on the piano in her junior year. "I found that my soul was much more compatible with the sound of the piano, so I wrote my first song 'Carrie' about my roommate at the time. I fell in love and proceeded to write 28 songs on the piano while finishing my schooling." In her senior year Jasy founded a writer's night/open jam at a bar on campus, where she performed regularly and developed something of a local following. Confirming that being an artist was her true calling, Jasy made ends meet teaching classical voice lessons and chorus, while continuing to focus intently on her real passion- writing music that would speak universally to others. In October 2002, Jasy's ambition moved her from small-town South Carolina to Nashville to pursue her career as a professional recording artist. Jasy began playing open mic and writers' nights around town where she was a regular favorite among local audiences. Jasy penned 30 plus songs during her first couple months in Nashville plus began composing for film as well. She joined a band, Inner Jonez, as lead singer and principle songwriter, gaining a promising local following. After roughly a year, Jasy decided to return to the circuit as a solo artist. In the spring of 2004, Jasy Andrews signed a two- album deal with Versailles Records, distributed nationally by Big Daddy Music Distribution. She has appeared on internationally-released tributes to Tina Turner and Bon Jovi, and on October 11th, will release her debut double-LP, Little Girl.
