BAND OF THE DAY #133 - Jamie N Commons


Listen to this track “The Preacher” and you’d be hard pushed to believe that Jamie N Commons is only 22. It’s also hard to believe he’s not an American, in fact hailing from Bristol. However, Commons moved to Chicago when he was six and that is where he discovered his love for blues and song-writing, and it was there that he developed his distinct growl of a voice. Strong references to retribution, violence and death are ever present his debut EP “The Baron” released in October 2011, making comparisons to artists such as Tom Waits, Nick Cave and Mark Lanegan inevitable. Keep your eyes and ears open for the release of his debut album, scheduled for some time this year.
