Continuously acclaimed as one of the Top 10 Male Vocalists in the world, Jimi Jamison always delivers a strong and powerful performance. As the voice behind the Baywatch theme tune ‘I’m Always Here’, and the iconic ‘Eye of the Tiger’ Jamison also fronted the band Survivor and sang for slightly lesser known bands Target and Cobra.

From humble beginnings in rural Mississippi to superstardom in Memphis Jamison is proud of his connections to the one of the other sacred son’s of The River City. Jamison first met Elvis as a child at a city department store, and over the years even spent time with the legend at Graceland. Like The King, Jamison continually dedicates his time and fortune to many good causes in the US.

Jamison got his first studio recording experience at the age of 15 at the legendary Phillips Recording studio in Memphis, under the direction and guidance of his good friend and renowned engineer/producer Knox Phillips, (son of Sam Phillips who discovered Elvis) recording a single ‘If I Cry’.

In the early 70s, at the invitation of TMI Studio bass player Jim Johnson (Roy Orbison, Vince Gill) he began hanging out with the studio musicians and watching sessions being recorded. "I was there so much that Steve, and the rest of the staff started thinking that I worked there", says Jamison, " I was just amazed at the people and the process of making a record and wanted to be around it as much as possible. I got to watch everyone from Poco to Jeff Beck recording their albums. It was a great experience." Hanging out finally paid off when Cropper asked Jimi to sing background vocals on a session he was producing, which opened the doors to more and more vocal work.

Popularity soon started gaining momentum with the Target, who released two albums in the late 70s. Jamison continued his rise to stardom forming the Swiss/American melodic metal group Cobra, who after a brief spell of success in the early 80s splintered into other acts such as Asia, Survivor and Krokus.

In 1983 Survivor were riding high on the success of international smash hit ‘Eye Of The Tiger’, but needed to replace their lead singer. At the suggestion of Epic Records exec Frank Rand, Jamison was asked to take a shot at singing with the group.

Used to a heavier more rock type of vocal style, Jamison was hesitant about accepting the invitation, but with urging from friends back home and after hearing some of the songwriting of Jim Peterik, he decided to give it a try.

Jamison's vocals and Peterik's songwriting became the magic combination which would lead Survivor to many Top 10, Top 20, gold and double platinum albums and multiple movie soundtracks including ‘Burning Heart’ for Rocky IV, ‘The Moment of Truth’ for The Karate Kid and ‘Ever Since The World Began’ from the movie Lockup.

Everything they touched turned to gold and money seemed to be pouring in from everywhere but never quite made it to Jamison’s pocket. Feeling unfairly treated, he left Survivor in 1991 and recorded two solo albums and also became a founding member of The Voices of Classic Rock which included Mickey Thomas of Starship, Bobby Kimball of Toto, Mike Reno of Loverboy and John Cafferty. This was the first group of its kind which featured the original lead singers from successful bands of the 80s.

During the 90s Survivor cased to exist, and Jamison busied himself with hooking up with some other musical legends: Paul and Linda McCartney, John Entwhistle of The Who and Jeff Baxter of the Doobie Brothers to name but a few.

Jamison released his first solo album ‘When Love Comes Down’ in 1991 and in the late 90s he released a highly acclaimed follow up, ‘Empires’.

Currently Jamison is in the studio working with former Survivor sidekick Jim Peterik on a new album that will be released in late 2008.
