Jamie Connolly
Jamie Connolly is an experienced and professional 'personality vocalist' and multi-tribute artist (mainly Freddie Mercury). Following initial experience in his twenties in Musical theatre tours, a West End variety show in 2006 and a West Midlands theatre he's had over 8 years experience as a professional vocalist/entertainer.
With a 3-octave vocal range, Jamie can perform from a repertoire covering 7 decades worth of iconic Swing, Soul, Disco, Rock/Indie, Pop classic to contemporary singalong hits.
No Jamie Connolly show is ever the same, often/always praised by venues for audience interaction, shows loaded with cheeky humour and innuendo, and the majority of gigs finishing the evening to a packed out dance floor or a conga line!
Jamie Connolly has also been performing for the last decade as an aspiring singer-songwriter, writing and recording his own original songs and music under the artist name of James T Wilde. He's also an accomplished rhythm guitarist and acoustic vocalist.
Available to book for pubs, clubs, corporate and private parties self-contained with professional PA and stage lights.
