Eye On Jamz powered by ION Indie Magazine ft an interview with Jaime Kyle
A trailblazer for women in rock, and known as the goddess of rock and blues, Jaime Kyle has had an immeasurable amount of success over her years in the industry
Jaime learned to be scrappy and creative. When she was missing a musician for a Nashville session, she scoped out local bar bands and hired a bass player on the spot for a midnight session. The chain of events led to Nancy Wilson of Heart recording Jaime’s song “Stranded.” The word “no” was never an option. When a record executive listened to a demo tape of “Wild One” and threw it down the hall, Jaime didn’t miss a beat. She picked up the broken tape, fixed it, and the demo found its way to Faith Hill. The rest is history.
Jaime joins me to talk about Faith Hill recording "Wild One", her current alum, her music career and much more.
