Jamie Lenman

Formerly the frontman and principal songwriter for British alt-rockers Reuben, singer, guitarist, and illustrator Jamie Lenman launched a solo career after the band went on indefinite hiatus. Born in 1982 in the affluent commuter town of Camberley, Surrey, about 30 miles south of London, Lenman was primarily an illustrator who began drawing at the age of eight, influenced by Charles Schulz and Jim Davis; he once claimed that he saw his entire musical career as a "sidestep."
