The Music of W.C. Jameson

An award-winning songwriter and popular entertainer, Jameson tours the country performing his original material at folk festivals, college concerts, rodeos, clubs, roadhouses, concert halls, and television.

With over 300 songs to his credit, Jameson draws on a wealth of material from life and sings it from the heart. His tunes have been recorded by others, and one of his songs, “Life was a Whole Lot Better When Roy Rogers was Around,” was aired by The Western Channel as a theme for a special movie month.
Jameson has written sound tracks for two PBS documentaries and penned a portion of the sound track for the feature film, Spoils of War. In addition, Jameson wrote the musical Whatever Happened to the Outlaw, Jesse James? in which he sings all of the songs in the musical and plays six different instruments.

In addition to filling concert houses and performance halls throughout the country, Jameson has shared the stage with some of America’s leading performers including Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Judy Collins, Emmylou Harris, Neil Young, Delbert McClinton, Ritchie Havens, Lucinda Williams, Ramblin’ Jack Elliot, Pure Prairie League, Dennis Quaid, Townes Van Zandt, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Michael Martin Murphey, Hot Club of Cowtown, Augie Meyers, Steve Fromholz, The Texas Playboys, Mike Blakely, and John Arthur Martinez.

His performances have been described by reviewers as “dynamic” and “powerful,” and one critic wrote, “Listeners never tire of Jameson’s rich baritone, his memorable and captivating lyrics, and his infectious rhythms.”
