We're very excited to welcome another local star to the Pier One Stage.
Raised in Devon the Bristol based singer-songwriter Jamie Yost had early success with his 2018 single “Runaway” reaching over 300,000 streams. Yost’s music focuses heavily on poetic lyricism, his Folk roots and interwoven Alt-Pop melodies that bring moments of Bon Iver, Ben Howard to The War on Drugs and Dermot Kennedy.
Since 2018 Jamie has caught the eye of prestigious festivals delivering headline performances at Cambridge Folk Festivals ‘The Den’ stage, performing on the emerging Artists ‘The View Stage’ at Boardmasters and supporting the likes of Nathan Ball, Ward Thomas and Ferris & Sylvester. In 2022 Yost teamed up with the illustrious Youtube Channel ‘Mahogany’ to share an exclusive performance of his track ‘Storm’ standing him next to previous powerhouse performers including Billie Eilish & Dermot Kennedy.
Jamie finished off 2022 with the release of his second EP ‘Yesteryears’, an entirely self produced lockdown record and a deep dive into older folkier material. In 2024 Yost released his most dynamic record yet the ‘This is home’ EP with a bigger more commercial sound including the recent singles 'Nightmares' & ‘Drifting On’. Jamie is set to release brand new music early 2025 as a Help Musicians-supported Artist.
