Jamie Isaac, is a London-based singer and producer, born and raised in Croydon. Signed to House Anxiety / Marathon Artists, Jamie's debut EP, I Will Be Cold Soon, attracted attention for its near-choral incantations, minimalist jazz tones and post-rock layering.[1][2] Jamie has been praised for utilising the power of silence with experimental and enveloping swaggering beats and his self-aware lyrics.[3][4][5] His second EP, Blue Break, gained recognition for its soulful, piano-led sound.[6][7] Featuring Jamie in The Guardian's New Music, Michael Cragg praised "Blue Break" for "favouring space and atmosphere over production histrionics".[8]
In the run up to the release of his forthcoming debut album (out via House Anxiety / Marathon Artists), Isaac presented the 'Loose Grip' Mixtape, a series of remixes of tracks taken from the album featuring collaborations with Rejjie Snow, King Krule under the moniker Edgar The Beatmaker, Jesse James, Jadasea, Black Mack, and Mr Malarky.[9]
Background
Tom Cully, known professionally as Jamie Issac, was born on July 2, 1994 in Croydon, United Kingdom. He attended BRIT School alongside King Krule,[10] the two have worked on many projects together since.[11] He started making his own music in 2011 in his parents home, and released a few online demos. After a friend of his invited him to do a few sessions in a studio, his music advanced rapidly, with people expressing an interest in his music. Jamie has always had an interest in being a film-making and script writing, saying that if it weren't for music, that is what he would probably would have pursued a career in.[12]
His influences come from jazz pianists such as Dave Brubeck, Bill Evans and Teddy Wilson and classical pianist Chopin as well as The Beach Boys.[12]
Jamie describes his own music style as "brooding, cinematic and minimalist" and that he would never write a song without a piano line in it. He has released two EP's, namely 'I Will be Cold Soon' and 'Blue Break', both of which have become well known.
