Jamie is the lead singer/rythym guitar player for Mind Carnival.  His main musical influence is the Grateful Dead.  Other influences range from the Indigo Girls and U2 to 311 and Stevie Ray Vaughn.  His instrument of choice is his seven-year-old Yamaha acoustic named "Amy".  A theatre major at SMSU in Springfield, Missouri, Jamie's passions are acting, singing, songwriting, and bustin' a move with the self-created "chicken dance" on stage.  He seeks fame but fears the same fate as other famous "J" names, i.e., Jerry Garcia, Jim Morrison, Jimmi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, John Lennon, Jon Candy, John Denver, . . . . shall I continue?

Before Mind Carnival, Jamie was a member of Barefoot Lawn, Junebugs in July, Silent Thunder, and the short-lived Dream Quest -- sharing vocal duties with Matt Giles.  Originally folk singers, they've been writing music together since they were 14 and now enjoy singing rock, blues, funk, and even a little bit of rap as Mind Carnival vocalists.

FAVORITE QUOTE:  "We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl year after year.  Running over the same old ground, have we found the same old fears?  Wish you were here." -- Pink Floyd
