SUPPORT:
JAMIE MCDONALD:
"After making music for the last 15 years with the band South, Jamie McDonald thought it only right that his own songs see the light of day. Jamie has amassed a talented group of musicians and friends over the years, and so bringing a band together was logical as South take their extended hiatus. His Band are: Jamie McDonald (vocals, guitars), George Hider (guitars), Joel Cadbury (bass), Ascher Nathan (keyboards) and Sam Chappell (drums). Somewhere between The Lemonheads and The Bees (with a hint of The Verve), Jamie McDonald anchors his sound with a British grooviness, married with a direct pop sensibility."
