His television appearances include ABC's Good Morning America and The CBS Early Show. His songs have been recorded by many major Country music artists. [1] [2] Teachenor started very early in music, fronting many bands in the Southeastern and Midwestern United States. By the age of seventeen, he was receiving regular regional airplay, and the day before his 21st birthday, he moved to Nashville to further pursue his musical dreams.

Early life

Jamie Teachenor was born in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. He was raised in Fagus, Missouri, and is the son of Rockabilly Hall of Famer, Jim Teachenor. [3]

Teachenor began singing publicly at 3 years old with his family at Fagus General Baptist Church, and at 7, he started playing the piano there. When Teachenor was 9, he played his first paying gig at a bar in Hayti, Missouri, called the "Idol Hour." At the age of 13, he played a number of shows with a Gospel vocal group he formed called, "The Young Sounds Of Faith." He continued to front various bands throughout his early teens.

He attended school at Twin Rivers School District in Qulin and Broseley, Missouri. After graduating high school, he moved with his father to the small neighboring town of Pollard, Arkansas. He continued to reside there throughout his college years until ultimately moving to Nashville, Tennessee.

Career

Regional Success

At 17 years old, Jamie Teachenor walked into Hays Music Store in Poplar Bluff, Missouri and was encouraged by employee, John DeRosa, to enter the Butler County Fair Talent Show. [4] Reluctant at first, he decided the day before the contest to enter, because the grand prize was the opportunity to record a song and have it played on the radio. [5] After Wednesday night's show, Teachenor finished on top and would return on Saturday for the finals and go on to win first place at the Fair. [6]

On September 4–5, 1997 Teachenor recorded 2 songs, "Baby, You Can Fall In Love With Me" written by himself, and "Country Singer's Dream" written by his father, at WLD Recording Studio near Williamsville, Missouri, with John DeRosa playing guitar, Joey McNew playing drums, and studio owner, Will Dougherty Jr, engineering and playing bass. [7] Teachenor released the 2 songs regionally on his debut EP, "Taken By Storm".

Teachenor received his first radio airplay in September 1997 with "Baby, You Can Fall In Love With Me." The song first played on KOOL 96.7, a Pop/Rock station in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. 92.9 in Malden, Missouri, and 98.9 in Kennett, Missouri, quickly followed suit along with many other area radio stations. [8]

Due to much radio and newspaper support, Teachenor held a concert at Twin Rivers High School on September 30 [9] and drew a crowd of 1487 ticket buyers in Broseley, Missouri, a town of only a couple hundred people.

In October 1997, Linda Goldschmidt introduced Jamie to an agent named Ron Woolman. Woolman brought Teachenor to Caravell Studios in Branson, Missouri to record "Petals," and "I Know You," both co-written with his father, Jim Teachenor, and a Christmas song called "The Little Elves," written by his father. [10] This session, Teachenor was joined by his live bassist, Allen Gallimore, and his father, Jim Teachenor, on acoustic guitar along with DeRosa and McNew with Mike Frazier engineering. The 3 songs from the Branson sessions were added to the 2 from the WLD Recording Studio (Will Dougherty, Jr, Owner/Engineer) sessions for a second EP regionally released by Teachenor. [11]

Teachenor continued to sell out concerts [12] and have heavy regional radio airplay, [13] with some national exposure, keeping the attention of many local newspapers from surrounding towns and counties. [14]

In 1998, just one year after winning the talent show, Teachenor was asked to return to the Butler County Fair, this time as the Fair's headliner. Earlier that year, he began playing regularly with guitarist, Mark McPheeters and drummer Darren Elder, helping further define his sound. [15] Elder had even talked about moving to Nashville with Teachenor, but was tragically killed in an auto accident in the summer of 1999.

Over the next few years, Teachenor played with a number of different bands including, Haywire (formerly called Dirt Road Express), a six piece band with Randy Ogden on bass and Kent Blocker on guitar, and Southern Storm, a band featuring long time friend and guitarist, Mark McPheeters, bassist, Keith Knutsen, and Kelly Keene (son of Joe Keene).

He sang the national anthem for the NCCAA Division 1 National Championship basketball game held at OCU in 1999. While attending the university, he traveled with OCU's student Gospel vocal group, Earthlight. [16] The group recorded an album at Square One Studio in Franklin, Tennessee, in late 2000 that included 2 songs with Teachenor on lead vocals, "Open His Eyes," written by Jamie's father, and "The Lamb, The Lion, And The King," made famous by the Crabb Family. Teachenor left OCU for Nashville after the fall semester of 2000 and consequently, wasn't included on the album's credits or artwork. He continued to play shows with Haywire, Southern Storm and numerous other musician lineups throughout college, when he wasn't on the road with Earthlight.
