Jamie Lidell - The City

  • 17 years ago
Jamie Lidell (born September 18, 1973 in Huntingdon, Cambridge, England) is a musician and soul singer. He is signed to Warp Records. He has a group with Cristian Vogel called SuperCollider.

Lidell is known for layering tracks made with his voice into a microphone, performing the percussion and melody as a sequenced beatboxing one-man band. Then over his augmented voices, he sings soul-inspired songs. This exercise makes for energetic live performance.

He often collaborates with Canadian musicians like Gonzales, Feist and Mocky.
