Jamie Lawson is an English singer-songwriter who gained widespread recognition after being the first artist signed to Ed Sheeran's record label, Gingerbread Man Records. Born on December 1, 1975, in St Budeaux, Plymouth, Lawson developed an affinity for music at a young age and began pursuing a career in music in the early 2000s. He performed across the UK and Ireland, slowly building a loyal fanbase through his poignant lyrics and heartfelt performances.
Lawson's breakthrough came with the release of his hit single "Wasn't Expecting That" in 2011, which garnered significant attention and led to his eventual signing with Sheeran's label in 2015. The song, with its touching narrative and delicate melody, exemplifies Lawson’s talent for crafting emotionally resonant songs. His self-titled album, released the same year, further solidified his place in the folk-pop genre, showcasing his soulful voice and reflective songwriting. Over the years, he has continued to release music that resonates with audiences, evolving his sound while maintaining the emotional integrity that has become his trademark. Recent releases like "Little Weaknesses" and "Matter to Me (Radio Mix)" display his ongoing dedication to exploring the intricacies of love and human connection through music, and his acoustic versions, like "Love & Distance (Acoustic)," highlight the raw emotion present in his work.
