You may remember him as the young artist who jumped on stage with Keith Urban in Sydney in December 2022, but Jamie Preston is back in the spotlight with his debut single, ‘Take It Slow.’
With a unique blend of heartfelt storytelling and contemporary country pop sounds, Jamie aims to bring in listeners far and wide.
‘Take It Slow’ is a reflection of his diverse musical influences.
“Morgan Wallen was one of the main artists I was listening to when I wrote this song,” he said.
The song was initially written solely by Jamie, but he collaborated with award winning artist and mentor, Lyn Bowtell, to fine-tune and bring out the best in it.
“We swapped some things around to create a perfect balance,” Jamie added.
‘Take It Slow’ is a song that tells the story of a hesitant romance.
“There was a girl who I met, and the song is about love, falling in love, and wanting to give it a shot, but also about playing it cool, taking things slow,” he said.
“It’s about the ups and downs of love that many people can relate to, even if they might not know how to put those feelings into words.”
What sets this single apart is Jamie’s ability to create music that is both familiar and refreshingly new.
“I wanted to create something relatable, something that many people would feel but might not know how to express,” he said.
“I aim to connect with the audience through my music. I’d like to get this song out for everyone to hear and make my first mark on the country music scene, with hopes of eventually reaching the global country music scene.”
