Jamie Johnson, finalist of BBC’s The Voice is recording his pre-album demo ahead of his first studio album in Kent’s state of the art music facilities<\/strong>.\"Jamie<\/a><\/p>\n

A member of pop icon Kylie Minogue\u2019s team in the show, Jamie will record all six tracks which he performed during the series in the University\u2019s professional recording studio, part of its School of Music and Fine Art based at the Historic Dockyard Chatham.<\/p>\n

Returning to Medway after the show\u2019s finale last Saturday (5 May), the 19 year old has selected the University\u2019s facilities for its \u00a0flag ship studio \u00a0located \u00a0near to his hometown of Gillingham.<\/p>\n

The Foundry recording studio, which is part of the University of Kent\u2019s multi million pound dockyard facility produces high quality recordings and provides a platform for artists to produce professional standard work. Jamie will also be supported by two of the\u00a0School’s studio technicians when he records the \u00a0tracks.<\/p>\n

Phil Marsh, head of technical support said: \u2018We\u2019re delighted to be able to provide professional level studio time to one of the UK\u2019s latest music artists. Jamie did incredibly well in The Voice and despite not winning the competition he knows that most of the singers who go on to succeed after the competition are the runners\u2019 up. We hope that by providing \u00a0high class recording facilities we can help give his career the success he is looking for.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Being local to Medway and having state-of-the art facilities of this calibre at the University of Kent is fantastic. I worked in a number of studios during rehearsals on The Voice and these are definitely on a par with the ones I used when I was singing alongside Kylie Minogue. I\u2019m eager to record my debut album so people can continue to listen to my music now my journey as part of The Voice has come to an end’ says Jamie.<\/p>\n

Other artists and musicians can utilise the University\u2019s School of Music and Fine Art recording facilities following the introduction of an independent record label based at the University.<\/p>\n

The label will provide up and coming artists, particularly from the South East, the opportunity to use professional studio facilities in Kent to produce their work.<\/p>\n
