REID JAMIESON ~ singer songwriter Vancouver BC http://www.reidjamieson.com/


"Gorgeous, sun-struck acoustic soul" - Globe & Mail

Vancouver's Reid Jamieson shines his light with an incredible voice, therapeutic lyrics, and magical way with melodies. A regular on CBC/PRX’s Vinyl Cafe, and winner of the grand prize for folk in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, he has recorded with Cowboy Junkies, Samantha Parton (Be Good Tanyas), Sarah Harmer and various members of Blue Rodeo. Reid can often be found performing as an entertaining duo with his saucy wife and songwriting partner Carolyn Victoria Mill. Along with the Lennon win, this creative couple wrote their way into the Vancouver Folk Music Festival by winning 1st prize in the Pickin' a Folk Star Contest, and together they will release a country-folk flavoured album (their first singing together on disc) titled 'Juniper's Kitchen' in the Fall of 2014. A male k.d. Lang or Roy Orbison's long lost son; the comparison's continue to come in but Reid remains uniquely himself.

PRESS

"Neither derivative nor nostalgic...a work of elegant, understated beauty that juggles elements of plaintive folk, rock and countrified pop while enveloping the listener in the atmospheric glow of his soulful vocals."- Paste Magazine (4 to Watch)

"I don't know how I missed it, but somewhere between the release of his debut CD, 'Staring Contest' and what could be mistaken for a simple holiday album 'Songs For A Winter's Night,' Reid Jamieson has become the greatest Canadian pop singer" - NoDepression.com

"After Reid appeared on the Vinyl Cafe we received tremendous feedback from our audience. He stole the show...He blew me away." Stuart McLean - CBC Vinyl Cafe

"Jamieson's songs are unabashedly crisp (take that, Bonnie Prince!), drenched in wistful piano/guitar melodies, and centered on his satin whisper." - CNet.com

'Lovers of classic quality should acquire without hesitation.' - Comes With A Smile – UK

“Happy to follow you, Reid. You're one of the best singers in the country.” @ThatEricAlper

"Prepare to be surprised" - Vancouver Province
