one direction - story of my life
what a wonderfully great folk inspired pop number from 1d! co-written by ed drewett, jamie scott AND 1D themselves, this is probably their most mature release and it's just a solid fall ballad for the cooling climes. kind of love this!
graffiti6 - free
[back in 2007 we fell in love with a soulful singer/songwriter with a voice of butter named jamie scott. unfortunately his music got lost in the midst of all the releases that year and he found himself losing out on the success that he so deserved. fast forward to 2012 and something about the crazy harmonies and strong soulful approach of this song 'free' made me perk my ears up. so imagine my happiness when i discovered that my beloved jamie teamed up with producer tommy d (adele/kanye west) and created the new incarnation of graffiti6. the collaboration is magical and i am definitely putting their debut album 'colours' on my radar for the year. welcome back jamie!]

[breathless!]
jamie scott & the town - bleeding love (cover version)
[gosh, i wish i could share this with you! once again proving that leona's single is really crossing into public zeitgeist, here is the wonderfully talented jamie scott making the already lovely song his own. gorgeous!]
[i don't know what the UK is putting in their water for the past few years, but they seem to be coming up with one sweet white soul r&b influenced artist after another. the latest US airwaves ready act is 25 singer/songwriter jamie scott. though his debut album was due for release back in 2005, things got held up indefinitely when his label was caught up in a merger and he had to wait out his contract in the process.
but good things definitely come to those who wait because the boy is not only signed with a new label, but the same kind of care taken to build label mate james morrison's career is being set for jamie scott his band, the town. check out the gorgeous harmonies in his latest single... sigh, can you tell i'm already won over!]
jamie scott & the town - weeping willow
[less poppy as the current single, but this showcases jamie's talented vocal abilities... i'm a fan!!! if you like what you hear, pre-order his debut album park bench theories now!]
jamie scott - smile (lily allen cover)
[a lovely cover, but what the heck is he doing in the middle of a rocky field?]
