About October Soul...About October Soul...

A sexy infusion of rock, country, blues and original styles masterfully arranged and passionately crafted, October Soul is seasoned with the sweat and blood of legendary clubs. Female and Native American (Lac Courte Oreilles) fronted, "these guys just keep getting better and better!" and it shows... with honors such as 2010 Shepherd Express Best Blues Band finalist, 2010 Grafton Blues Challenge finalist and a 2010 WAMI Award finalist for Best Female Vocalist - all in their first year!

Jamie Brace
Lead Vocals

Jamie Brace, the front lady of October Soul, is the proud recipient of the Shepherd Express 2007 Best Female Vocalist Award, 2010 WAMI Female Vocalist of the Year finalist and most recently the Grafton Blues Challenge People's Choice Award winner for 2011.

Jamie's voice has been compared to the likes of Susan Tedeschi and Janis Joplin, but certainly she has a style and passion that is true to her own. Jamie brings power, passion and feeling to every note she sings.
