“To become your own person is not to imitate or duplicate what has already been done but to take the road less traveled upon and create your own destiny." Singer, songwriter, producer, performer and a dedicated artist in his own right, Jame taught himself how to play the piano, keyboards, and drums. He later picked up the guitar and is constantly learning new techniques. Influenced by great artists such as: Santana, Mint Condition, Seal, D' Angelo, Maxwell, George Clinton, Parliament/Funkadelic, Wendy & Lisa, Sly and The Family Stone, James Brown, Dinah Washington and some fellow who changed his name to an androgyny symbol. Jamie started his career as a member of a Hip-Hop Urban Dance Troop called the Orlando Palladium Dancers, which performed at various shows around the Central Florida area.
