Born and raised in Newcastle, Jamie has quickly established himself as one of the North East’s most exciting singer-songwriters, combining heartfelt lyrics, uplifting melodies and an authentic live performance that has earned him a loyal following. 🙌
Jamie’s latest single, Without Your Love, is his biggest release to date, receiving radio play across the UK and Europe and even being played out at St James’ Park as Newcastle United warmed up. His live credentials are just as impressive, having opened for Robbie Williams and performed at the BBC Introducing Stage at Kendal Calling, alongside sharing stages with Becky Hill, Tom Grennan, Lucy Spraggan and Ronan Keating. 🎶
Now, Jamie is bringing his live sound to South Yorkshire at the races during the Futurity Trophy Stakes. Expect a feel-good set packed with melodic songwriting, big choruses and an uplifting live performance to make your raceday one to remember. ✨
