"Achingly beautiful songs... A haunting quality not soon forgotten"
- Globe & Mail

Reid Jamieson is a classic Canadian heartbreaker with an incredible voice and a magical way with melodies. 2008 finds him hard at work writing a soulful follow up to his latest, plus releasing a rather unintentional fifties era tribute to Elvis entitled The Presley Sessions.

In case you don't know, Reid's latest disc of original music; The Unavoidable Truth, was produced by Josh Finlayson (Gord Downie Band, Skydiggers) and features guest appearances from Sarah Harmer & Bob Egan (Blue Rodeo, Wilco) while showcasing his choirboy ways, therapeutic lyrics and country-flavoured pop hooks. You can listen to some of it here.

Reid recently moved from Toronto to beautiful BC (Vancouver via Victoria) where he is exploring the fine art of songwriting, playing around town, and appearing with some regularity on CBC’s Vinyl Cafe and other fine shows.

File alongside fellow rootsy singer songwriters:Ron Sexsmith, Damien Rice, Jeff Buckley, Josh Rouse, Glenn Tilbrook and Neil Finn. And please stay tuned for more from this tender troubadour...
