Jamie-Lee Warlow

ABOUT ME

Why am I the right man for the job?

I'm a self-employed music-industry professional, hailing from South Wales in the UK. I'm professional and hard-working yet easy going and personable but hey, don't take my word for it...

Jamie is a godsend. We will never tour without him if he is available. Super pro and puts my mind at ease whilst the band is on tour.

I have UK, European and US tour and festival experience and have driven extensively in these territories.
