Jamie Cullum....

Jamie has always been obsessed by Muscia since very young: Rock, Hip Hop, Acid Jazz, Blues, among others. Discovered the Jazz too early due to major references as Miles Davis or Herbie Hancock, but also showed interest in groups like Steely Dan Jamie learned to play the piano alone and while studying at the University began working as a pianist and singer, worked anywhere could, since the cruise weddings, bars, etc..
In 1999 released their first album together with some friends, Heard It All Before. Only 500 copies were made. After taking the course, launched the Album, Pointless Nostalgic, where most of the songs are covers of other well-known musicians, among them are George Gershwin and Thelonious Monk. As the first jazzista to mix with the other jazz rhythms such as pop, hip-hop and Latin nuances. Recreating old songs from jazz to names like Frank Sinatra and placing them in an absolutely new drapery, Jamie makes successfully in Europe and Asia, where more than covers emplaca success of his own authorship distributed on three CDs: "Pointless Nostalgic," " Twentysomething "and" Catching Tales. "
The young artists began to be recognized in Brazil due to the tracks "What a Difference a Day Made," track the novel "The Color of Sin" and "Mind Trick", music that was present in the track's novel "Beautiful Girls", later , His song "Our Day Will Come" was selected for the trail of "Pages of Life." The singer also has stakes in the "Domingão the Faustão" and "Program of OJ."
Although primarily a musician based in Jazz, Jamie Cullum is considered a crossover of styles, ie as a mixture of styles based on a single. For example, his first Album is quite Jazz while the second contains a little longer Pop culture Jamie is a musician with a bright future ahead. I heard two CDs of him and I was amazed by the quality and because of old songs being recorded with a new-style without losing the feature of music.
