Jamie Lawson + Special Guests 

Jamie Lawson has announced his 6th album Little Weaknesses, alongside the release of his new single ‘Napoleon Dynamite’. Following a four-year hiatus, Jamie has returned with his most poignant and heartfelt work to date. Chronicling the earliest years of fatherhood and a newfound creative energy, Little Weaknesses is a record that embraces brightness and brims with optimism for the future. The first single, out today, features vocals from the young Kent singer-songwriter LAKY. With its folk, Americana soundscape, ‘Napoleon Dynamite’ takes inspiration from the hopeful soundtracks of the American indie teen movies that defined the 90s and early 00s. Little Weaknesses is 14 tracks of concise, emotive beauty. It’s a record that sees Jamie wholeheartedly embrace collaboration, working alongside a close-knit group of artists and friends, including multi-genre violinist Isabella Baker and songwriters Simon Aldred (aka Cherry Ghost) and Jack McManus. The entire album was crafted in Jamie’s music room in Manchester and recorded by producer-collaborator Tim Ross in Twickenham.
