About
Jamie Ross is the human behind Got Your Backings, and he is filled with immediate regret that he started writing
this in the third person.
I’m a professional Actor Musician, moonlighting as a Musical Director and Arranger. As a performer I have worked on the UK Tour of Footloose: The Musical, the world premiere of Mythic: A New Musical at the Charing Cross Theatre, and the acclaimed revival of The Secret Garden at the Barn Theatre.
I was nominated for an Offie for my work as Musical Director on Miracle on 34th Street at the Bridge House Theatre and I have worked as an Arranger for Stage Coach and the MAD Trust.
After years of being the go to guy any time a friend needed help with a piece of music for an audition, I decided to open up my services to a wider audience, I’m friendly and approachable, so feel free to get in touch or confront me in the street regarding your needs!
alright, I'm in, how much?

“I’ve used Got Your Backings for years & every job I’ve secured is thanks to Jamie.
The speed he can churn them out at whilst maintaining immaculate attention to detail is incredible. I was once asked to learn a 10 minute song I’d never heard before in 4 hours & Jamie had it notebashed & sent back to me within a half hour. It secured me my first West End job.
In an industry where it’s all about taking the ‘edge’ I think it’s essential to have a ‘go to’ like Jamie at Got Your Backings.”

Backing tracks came back quickly and were great quality. 100% would reccomend. Jamie’s a decent bloke too which
always helps.
Ellis Dackombe – Avenue Q
I don’t read music and learn purely by listening, so whenever I am sent sheet music to prepare, I always find
myself in a bit of a panic. Luckily I know I can always rely on Jamie to give me a concise and detailed
understanding of what exactly I need to work on, be it melody, rhythm or the general feeling of a song.
What’s also great is that Jamie is able to deliver these recordings back to you with a very short turnaround, leaving you plenty of time to efficiently sit with the material.
