Artist Information | | |
Hailing from Toronto. Jamesking, founded by Musician and composer Damir “Duff” Demirovic, is a melodic fusion of lyrical blues, R&B and Funk genres. Inspired by a time when popular R&B/Funk was a means of musical expression and not just a formula, Jamesking pours their heart and soul in to every song.
Formulated by 5 experienced and highly coveted musicians and songwriters, all who bring different skills and passions to the table. Jamesking owes its unique sound to Ran Caspi on bass, Ilian Iliev on keys, Vlada Mladenovic on percussion, Damir Demirovic on guitar and the sultry lead vocals of Gyles.
Already on the Toronto R&B scene, Gyles has performed with Juno-award nominees Jully Black, Camille Douglas and graced Carlos Morgan’s first single “Baby C’mon” appearing on Groove Essentials, Vol 1.Taking the opportunity to join Jamesking in 2007, Gyles has rounded out their signature sound and offers the audience a soulful and unforgettable experience every time.
With a complete CD of 9 full length songs Jamesking has had the pleasure of performing at some of Toronto’s finest landmark venues such as, The Opera House, Lee’s Palace, Reverb, Trane Studio, and Clinton’s Tavern, all known for hosting local and international concerts. The 2008 Canadian Music Week featured Gyles as she opened for M.O.P. & hip hop legend KRS 1 alongside Alex Dimes. In July of 2008, Jamesking released their debut video “Gold” which has received rave reviews. Jamesking placed 2nd place in the 2008 Mix 99.9 Canadian Radio Star Songwriting Competition and was nominated for a 2008 Canadian Independent music award. Most recently Jamesking headlined the 2008 Montreal Funk Festival in August. In addition Jamesking has obtained international TV publishing and licensing agreements that have exposed their music to larger audiences. Their music has been featured in Spain, the US (WVOF 88.5 FM, KFJC 89.7 FM and many more), the UK, Italy, Holland and Canada.
Jamesking has built a strong online reputation for themselves on popular online communities such as Facebook and MySpace. As these 5 musicians continue to launch their sound to the world, Jamesking is proving they are Toronto’s newest R&B sensation.
