Jamie Janover is recognized as a true musical and artistic innovator. His many talents include being a master of the ancient percussion stringed instrument called the hammered dulcimer (he won the 2002 National Hammered Dulcimer Championship), inventing an instrument he calls the "mini-kit" (a miniature amplified drum kit), playing pyrocussion (fire drums) and creating the Realmsmobile (a recumbent tricycle with the mini-kit attached, enabling him to ride and play drums simultaneously), among many other diverse creative outputs. Jamie also plays the drums, sitar, tamboura, didjeridu, tabla, congas, electric kalimba and all types of percussion instruments in his massive collection. He maintains a rigorous touring schedule year-round with many projects that he rotates through, including LYNX & Janover, ZILLA (w/ Michael Travis from SCI and Aaron Holstein) and from quartets like PRAANG (which features Steve Kimock and EOTO), to large ensemble gigs with Everyone Orchestra, among several other projects. Jamie is a veteran of hundreds of guest appearances including with artists: Phish, Bela Fleck, Stanley Jordan, String Cheese Incident, Umphrey’s McGee, Govt’ Mule, G. Love and Leftover Salmon, among many others. When not playing music, you can find Jamie connecting dots around the world by giving presentations on the Unified Field Theory of Nassim Haramein of the Resonance Project, creating sculptures from organic materials in nature and or practicing the art of photography.
