I'm Jamie Wilson, the new drummer for Color Light Theory and here is my story!

I moved to Baltimore in 1972 from Portsmouth, Virginia to attend the Maryland Institute-College of Art receiving a BFA degree in 1977. I have played a wide variety of music in the Baltimore / Washington area for over thirty two years, R&B, soul, traditional American, Punk and Irish.

Bands I have played with over these years include O’Malley’s March, The Bobwhites, The T.T. Tucker Bum Rush, The Burren Band, The Truetones, Red Jones, Da Moronics, Colleen Shanley & Grand Junction, Scrimshaw, Cousins - Mac Walters & John Cronin and now with Color Light Theory.

I have had the honor of sharing many stages with such notorieties as Patti LaBelle, Los Lobos, Blues Travelers, The Chieftains, Shane MacGowan & The Pogues, Black 47, The Saw Doctors, Bad Haggis, Charlie Musselwhite, Dennis Chambers, Carl Filipiak, Deanna Bogart, The Kelly Bell Band, The Slickee Boys, Half Japanese, The Prodigals, Eileen Ivers, Sue Richards, Maggie Sansone, Al Petteway, Billy McComiskey, Hasil Adkins, Almighty Senators, The Crawdaddies,  Edith Massey, Hibiscus & The Screaming Violets, Violent Femmes, Tinsley Ellis, Koko Taylor, Gaelic Storm, Flogging Molly, Great Big Sea, Robin Bullock and The Baltimore Symphony.
