Jamie Lockhart

Hi I’m Jamie, 

Born and raised in the highlands of Scotland (on this very croft), I spent my teens playing fiddle in ceilidh bands. 

When I was 18 I headed south to study pop music at the renowned Bretton Hall, where I met lots of my musical life partners. In 2001 I co-founded and ran Greenmount Studios (The Cribs, New Model Army, Easy Life) firstly in Wakefield (the home of indie pop) and then later in Leeds, where it still thrives. Greenmount is famed for its relaxed approach to making records, leaning on live tracking and mostly recording to 2” 16-track tape. Greenmount is still going strong and I still make records there all the time.

In between making records, mixing and mastering, I also do live sound for Drahla, The Research and Bodys.

I also have my own band called mi mye.

I love making records and working with bands and artists, taking time to make sure you feel comfortable and relaxed, and making something you’re really proud of and excited about.
