Jamie Droo: British singer, voice artist, and storyteller

"ABOUT JAMIE DROO"

My name is Jamie Droo. I’m a British singer, voice artist, and storyteller. Music has always been at the heart of what I do -- not just performing. 

Over the years, I've used my voice in many forms: live performance, narration and creative proyects that bring emotion and energy to an audience. 

This latest chapter es something deeply personal. The songs you hear on this site are based on original lyrics written by my late father, Graham Drew, in the late 1960s and early 70s. 

I've taken his words and reimagined them --giving them a fresh, uplifting sound while keeping the soul of what he created. This Project is more than music. It`s a tribute.


«SOBRE JAMIE DROO»

Me llamo Jamie Droo. Soy cantante, locutor y narrador británico. La música siempre ha sido el núcleo de lo que hago, y no solo en el ámbito de la interpretación. 

A lo largo de los años, he utilizado mi voz de muchas formas: actuaciones en directo, narraciones y proyectos creativos que transmiten emoción y energía al público. 

Este último capítulo es algo profundamente personal. Las canciones que escuchas en esta página web se basan en letras originales escritas por mi difunto padre, Graham Drew, a finales de los años sesenta y principios de los setenta. 

He tomado sus palabras y las he reinterpretado, dotándolas de un sonido fresco y estimulante, al tiempo que conservo el espíritu de lo que él creó. Este proyecto es más que música. Es un homenaje.

MRS is my first EP of original songs - A project deeply personal to me.


The songs were originally written by my father, Graham Drew, back in the late 1960s. Before he passed away, he asked me to do something with his music.

In February 2026, I finally brought that promise to life. These six songs combine Dads songwriting with my own musical influence and style, recorded professionally to deliver the same rich, polished sound you'd expect from mainstream artists.

So Jamie being the versatile artist he is, changed musical direction into what the audience wanted. Belting out tunes from The Kings Of Leon, Killers, Zutons, Oasis plus other classic hoo-kline songs that everybody knows and can sing along to, 

The show developed quickly into a format and The Rumpot would come alive with audiences loving this high energy party show.
