With inspiration from musical influences such as Sam Fender, Oasis and Bruce Springsteen, Jamie takes all of his musical inspirations and transforms them into his own authentic style, delivering music with heartwarming words which tug at the heartstrings and bringing real-life experiences to his music, whether that is the experiences we have growing up.
Delivering emotion-driven lyrics exploring themes of reflecting on relfecting his roots in life inside ‘Back At 25‘ to reminiscing on the special moments in relationships inside ‘After All This Time‘, Jamie blends poignant stories filled with real honesty that his listeners can empathise with.
Along with the sentimental lyrics, Jamie also boosts spirits to another level by creating uplifting music which feels energetic but peaceful at the same time. Using rhythmic acoustics and upbeat indie rock music combined with Jamie’s strong and distinct vocals, he grounds his music with heart, soul and passion.
“It’s about getting out and heading somewhere, pushing towards something better, not necessarily a specific place but a feeling or a promise two people make. The destination doesn’t matter; it’s about chasing something down that only people closest to you understand”
He also adds: “it’s really just about how I’ve watched life play out in front of me through the start of my 20s. As the name suggests it’s not exactly a diary entry, It’s more about standing back, taking stock of things and trying to make sense of what’s going on inside and around you.”
He provides messages of hope, and while looking forward to the future ahead of you, always look back on how far you have come, giving an optimistic feeling inside of his listeners.
