THE EARLY YEARS…
Here you’ll find summaries of Jamie Radcliffe’s early projects from 2021-2023 (some elements of which are no longer available, whether that be due to being taken offline or in some cases remade and improved on projects such Radcliffe’s 2024 album). So this acts as a lovely little time capsule of Jamie’s early years. Enjoy!
PROTAGONIST: THE DEBUT EP
The EP
‘Protagonist’ was Jamie Radcliffe’s debut EP from 2021. Born out of the final UK lockdown this was Radcliffe’s first foray into comedy music and he never looked back. The EP was the subject of a story in both the Oxford Mail and the Oxford Times with the homemade music videos and tracks on Spotify having now amassed thousands of views/streams collectively.
Reviews:
‘Entertaining others is something Jamie relishes’ - Oxford Mail ‘Comical instincts and witty lyrics’ - Oxford Times
Main Character
‘Protagonist’ might have never happened had it not been for the debut single ‘Main Character’ releasing on to the Jamie Radcliffe YouTube channel on 04.01.21. The music video quickly becoming the most popular and well received piece of comedy Jamie had ever released and was the catalyst for all the ideas which led to the release of the EP and further music videos just three months later. Main Character is still Jamie’s most popular song (He is a self-proclaimed one hit wonder).
Track List:
Main Character - I Did It Wrong - Influencer - Bit Of A Bad Boy - Main Character
