*Jamie Cullum*
I know, I know... I have read people mentioning and recommending Jamie Cullum songs for quite some time, but it took a bit of time for me to finally check it out! And I am hooked!! I already bought 3 albums and cannot stop hearing them all day long.
So, I thought I dedicate one topic to this genius talented young guy, because I have the feeling I am not alone here with my euphoria!
I am going to see Jamie Cullum in August in Germany! My tickets arrived two days ago and I am really excited! I've heard he is so great live!
Here is the link to his official website:

Please feel free to post more interesting infos about Jamie (nice name, by the way... ) here in this thread!

meike - you are not alone. i discovered him late also...that's okay though.
i am gonig to see him at the end of march in new york and am very excited. my favorite tracks of his is the 'frontin' cover from the first album, 'nothing i do' and 'mind trick' and '7 days to change your life' - all from the last album.
on a side note..i just found out jamie lidell is coming here on tour. i love him. check out his stuff at the giant step jukebox. he's addictive too.
anyway, i'll let you know how the j.cullum show is. it sold out last time  |

I AM SO EXCITED BECAUSE.....
i planned on going to see jamie in new york, but the tickets sold out fast! so i figured i was going to have to buy one on ebay or craigslist as the date got closer, but as i'm sitting home sick, i was looking on his website and saw that he is coming to my hometown of philadelphia (2 hours from new york) and performing at a venue a few steps from my work. but on his website, it says tickets are sold out to it, so i was pissed again.
but then i called the center and tickets aren't sold out and i bought one! so now, i'm going to see mr.cullum in my hometown on 3/27! and i don't have to go to new york. and the ticket price was so much cheaper than new york. and i got orchestra seats.
i can't wait  |

i was over reading his message boards. they are quite informative and great. funny thing is he admitted vomiting during the recording of 'i'm glad there is you'. he said his shrimp lunch came up and then he just kept singing and that if you listen closely, you can hear him getting sick. ew!! i'm listening carefully to it now to see if i hear it. because i never noticed it.
also, they are doing a really cool fundraiser over there to win a bunch of stuff. it's a raffle. i bought 5 tickets. it's for a great cause and look at what you can win. i was thinking about something like this involving jamiroquai...hmmmm.....me and my ideas anyway, cullum fans, check this out. sorry it's so long!!!

Hello Jamie fans!
I found out a little interesting bit that connects Jamie Cullum with Jamiroquai.
I found out that Jamie's big brother Ben Cullum (who is also the co-writer of Jamie's music) has been a session musician, to be exact a session bass-player for Jamiroquai. Never heard of this information, and I couldn't find anything about it even on funkin. Has anyone more information about it?
When was he playing with Jamiroquai and where?

Another musician both artists have in common is our man Martin Shaw, who played the trumpet on Jamie's albums. But this was posted long ago somewhere here, so that isn't really a new information. Just mentioned it for those who don't know yet.
Martin Shaw

Here is another picture of Ben Cullum. (on the right)
Nobody found out, when (or if) he played as a session bassist with Jamiroquai?
Maybe it is just a rumour - I will try to find out at the Jamie Cullum forums. They should know...
