Biography
22-year-old singer/pianist Jamie Cullum is the newest, freshest, most genuinely exciting face in the jazz scene, selling out venues from here to St. Petersburg and crossing over' like no male jazz singer since Harry Connick Jr. A jazz star with boy band looks who sings songs that don't require a degree in scatology to be enjoyed. Jamie enters the arena of sophisticated jazz with a humility that belies his exceptional talent. He explodes into the spotlight, playing the piano to spellbound crowds of youngsters more at home in pop venues than jazz clubs. First it's his youth that makes you do a double take, then his talent. Already a favourite of BBC Radio 2, the critics are raving about him too:'Cullum's mellifluous tone, clarity of diction, fluid relationship with the pulse and proclivity for taking chances - coupled with his exciting pianism - clearly mark him out as a young artist with immense potential' - Jazzwise
