Biography

The music of Jamie Oakes is soul music for the mind. Spawned from the blues, raised by folk and honed by rock, country and R & B, Oakes’ sound is as much about earthbound existence as it is about spiritual enrichment. With his emotive voice, his ethereal guitar work and his natural musicality, the listener is transported far and away from the mundane. 

Oakes has toured and shared the stage with Tom Cochrane, Holly Cole, Marc Jordan, Amy Sky, Jimmy Rankin, Tower of Power, Great Big Sea, Harrison Kennedy, and Jesse O’Brien, to name a few.
