Jammes Luckett, also formerly credited as Jaye Barnes Luckett (born August 13, 1974 in Columbus, OH) is an American musician, writer, visual artist, and voice actor. She became known as the force behind the rock / electronic band Poperratic – as singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, music arranger, music video director and record producer. Likewise, Luckett gained notice as a film and television composer and songwriter; contributing film scores and original songs (across a wide variety of genres) for independent and major projects. Luckett first came to international attention with her work on 2002's May – which has since acquired a cult following.
After running and operating an indie label called Go Little Records for 5 years, and performing in Alien Tempo Experiment 13 for a number of years, Jaye Barnes Luckett combined and changed both into a new music project called Poperratic, to focus on her work as a recording artist, songwriter and film composer.
