BIO
The Irish music scene in Philadelphia is bursting with bands and musicians who perform all over the area to keep the roots of Ireland alive in their songs. None of these performers are quite like Jamison though- a high-energy five-piece that can take traditional Irish tunes and turn them upside down, blending in rock, reggae, modern pop, and hip-hop along the way. Crowds can’t help but get to their feet as Jamison takes Irish music to the next level with original songs and eccentric versions of covers or festival favorites.
Since 2003, Jamison has been touring the East Coast’s Irish/Celtic festival circuit while maintaining an ever-growing following surrounding Philadelphia and the Jersey Shore. Notable appearances include:

The full band- as well as solo, duo and acoustic formations- spends weekends (and weekday gigs) performing in venues and pubs throughout their homebase. They have also been welcomed performers at regional events such as the Jameson Whiskey Bartenders Ball, Paddypalozza, Running of the Santas, and a number of community concert series’ in the region. The band hosts annual events including their own ‘An American Celtic Christmas’. Since 2012, the large production show draws in the band’s fans and friends for a holiday celebration that features some of the world’s best performers! The sell-out event combines Irish music and dance with Christmas favorites and pop stylings, creating a family friendly show that has become a yearly tradition to thousands in the Philadelphia area. After a cancelled tour in 2020 due to the pandemic, the show returned in the 2022 holiday season and has kept going since.
