Homecoming gig for Jamie
Oranmore singer/songwriter and musician Jamie Harrison, who cut his teeth busking on the streets of Galway, has gathered an impressive following on Spotify and Youtube with his latest single Spent So Long.
Spotify has placed the song on over four coveted playlists, along with artists such as The Killers, Charlie Puth, John Mayer, Zayn, Sia, and Ray LaMontagne, and has been picking up traction worldwide.
Jamie will return to Galway this Friday night, June 29, following his recent headline gig at Whelan’s in Dublin. He’ll be performing in the City’s Róisín Dubh to mark the release of Spent So Long.
Jamie recently collaborated with British Grammy award-winning producer Ken Nelson (Coldplay, Snow Patrol, Paolo Nutini) to produce several tracks for his anticipated debut album. These will be released individually in the coming months.
As a guitarist and musician, he has performed in cities across the UK, mainland Europe, the US and Australia and has also performed in festivals and venues including Electric Picnic and Vicar Street, as well as multiple performances in Dublin's renowned ‘Ruby Sessions’ which was previously home to musicians including Hozier, Mumford & Sons, Ed Sheeran, and Glen Hansard.
