Talking with @jamiehiggsmusic – Peace in the Sound
What do pub gigs, parenting chaos, and guitar chords at 2am have in common? This week’s guest, Jamie Higgs, lives in the middle of that beautiful mess — and has written a song about it too.
In this episode of My Music, Graham Coath sits down with Liverpool singer-songwriter Jamie Higgs, a late-starter on guitar who’s now gigging nonstop, fronting a new band, and chasing peace through the noise.
You’ll hear:
🎸 How a house party jam session started Jamie’s guitar obsession
🎶 Why three chords and a capo might be all you need to write your first song
🎤 The truth about pub crowds, Oasis singalongs, and knowing when to play Hey Jude
🔥 What happened when Jamie scrambled a band together four weeks before a headline gig (spoiler: it went off)
🧠 Honest talk about burnout, the energy drain of gig life, and the mental juggling act of being a dad, partner and musician
🕊️ And a deep dive into Jamie’s new single Peace in Your Sound — written in the chaos, about the chaos, and why he wouldn’t change it for the world
Plus: hot takes on Oasis’ return, soundcheck rituals, and why every band should spend more time just eating chicken and laughing.
If you’ve ever picked up an instrument late, wondered if your music matters, or tried to balance dreams with dinnertime — this one’s for you.
