He is signed to Virgin Records but released his Betty and The Selfish Sons EP on his own Pacemaker Records label in 2007. His musical style is hard to place, but incorporates elements of rap, reggae, and acoustic genres. Although at the time of writing Jamie has received relatively little mainstream exposure, he has received airplay from BBC Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe, who made "Salvador" his single of the week and "Back In The Game" his Hottest Record In The World. In January 2007 Jamie also covered Zane's show on radio 1 whilst Zane was away, working alongside Radio 1 DJ Nihal. On Jo Whiley's show, "Back In The Game" featured as her "pet sound" and more recently his single Sheila was Whiley's Record Of The Week. Jamie also remixed Gorillaz #36 single Kids With Guns. This was a B-side. "Sheila" was also 'playlisted' by Radio 1 thus receiving more airtime across all shows. To date Jamie has released three singles: "Sheila" was released on July 3rd 2006 and got to No.22 in the U.K. singles chart, his first Top 40 hit.
"If You've got the money", was released in October 2006 and reached No.13 in the UK top 40, and most recently
"Calm Down Dearest" was released in the UK on January 15, 2007, reaching No.12, his highest charting commercial success.
"Panic Prevention", Jamie's Debut album, was released on 29/1/2007 - although it was also leaked on the internet 3 weeks earlier. Jamie's no stranger to internet bootleggers, there's also a naughty 'Demos' album hanging around on the world wide highway containing alternative and live performances.
On March 1, 2007, Treays was voted as Best Solo Artist at the NME Awards, at Hammersmith Palais in London, England. He held off more established names like Thom Yorke & Jarvis Cocker, to receive the award.
Jamie T is currently working on his second album with a few track titles being released; including "Sticks and Stones", "Spiderwebs", "Hocus Pocus", "368", "Jilly Armeen", "British Intelligence", "Dance of the Young Professionals", "Man's Machine", "Earth, Wind & Fire", "Emily's Heart" and "Bruce". Also an unnamed track featuring backing vocals from Florence And The Machine's Florence Welch is set to be on the record. "Sticks n' Stones EP" is set to be released June 29th with The album "Kings & Queens" following late Summer.
On January 12th 2009, a music video appeared on Jamie's website for a new song, "Fire Fire". The track has elements of Jamie's trademark sound but incorporates faster rhythms, a punk aesthetic and a more abrasive sound than previous singles. Jamie T has said to NME "'Fire Fire' won't be released as a single nor will it be on the new album, it's just a thank you for the fans being so patient." He did announce a date for his new single though, The 'Stick 'N' Stones' EP which is to be released June 29th.
May 21st saw the release of the official video for his latest single "Sticks 'N' Stones". In an email received by subscribers to his website, Jamie said, “Just a little note to say thanks to everyone who’s supporting Sticks ‘N’ Stones. We just finished shooting a little video for the track the other day, so fresh out the edit room it is here for your enjoyment. It was a lot of fun to make and we hope you like it. Hope to see you all soon….. Thanks Jamie”. The video was shot entirely in the London suburb of Wimbledon where Jamie is from and features scenes of him and others, including fellow band members.

Sticks 'n' Stones
by Jamie T.
When there's no one left to fight
Boys like him don't shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle
He's out on the town tryin' to find trouble
When there's no one left to fight
Boys like him don't shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle
He's out on the town tryin' to find trouble
I took a train again away from shame
And blame a city pained to see
A friend I hadn't seen since I was drinking underage
I was a ten a day, how'd you say, little shit
White lightning, heightening all my courage, quick wit
We're as thick as thieves and wannabes
Buttoned shirts and whiskey
Mutton dressed as lamb a fan of bands
Like the Jam Jam Jam Jam
I don't know who I am, he said I dunno if I can
I said yeah man, you can-can
When there's no one left to fight
Boys like him don't shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle
He's out on the town tryin' to find trouble
When there's no one left to fight
Boys like him don't shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle
He's out on the town tryin' to find trouble
Drunk and being sick, I feel like shit
I gotta quit I hope I haven't missed the last train
Gonna be stuck in Hampton Wick
With the boys across the platform
Shouting lightweight prick
I'm a featherweight champion, cheap to get pissed
Wish Candy were here with me, she'd deffa deal with it
Tell 'em all to shut their mouths and go suck their mommas dicks
'Cause she ain't no she ain't that low, three fingers down
Or the other two up, and I'll sing this proud
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
As I travel down the track all my memories flood back
We were runnin' at ease from enemies
Back to your momma's flat
It's the only place but home I feel relaxed enough to crap
I know it sounds crude, but there's something in that
How's Danny doin'? Hear he's high flyin' and that
Stockbroker in the city with a lady and a baby
And Fee, is she free from the demons she had
Was it two months clean, routine to relapse
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
She smoked all of your weed
That's why the loved ones out to leave
Why when you take the lead they stab you in the back
'Til you can't breathe, when you're bleeding on the floor
And no one hears your call at all
She screamed out to the party
You are sheeps and cattle
I was hanging out with Louie in the shooting gallery
When the news got through to me about you and Jeremy Pat on my back, and a swig on my brew
You're still my friend, it's impossible to hate you
Cradle to the grave, I know we always misbehave
People latch down and then they rain on our parade
Girls we love leave when we want them to stay
Like today, remember, what Joey say?
When there's no one left to fight
Boys like us don't shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle
Let's go out and find some trouble
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
Runnin' with believers, no time for fever
And I haven't got time for you either
With your sticks n' stones, sticks n' stones
I take 'em home on my own
