Jamie & The Numbers - You Don't Love Me (Single)
Recorded originally in 1968 by a band called The Epitome of Sound, single "You Don't Love Me" is the title-track and first song taken from the debut album of Jamie & The Numbers, a funk & soul outfit from Wellington, New Zealand, and latest signing of Superfly Funk & Soul Records.
Jamie Musuva is a wonderfully gifted Tongan – Kiwi, 30 year old singer based in Wellington and she can occasionally be seen singing soul tunes for Tapestry Music Promotions at many of their Music Reviews and also in her gospel choir at Church. It was at one of the Tapestry Music shows in Wellington that Jamie met Simon from Deltaphonic Records / The Numbers. After watching Jamie perform an amazing version of “Wade In The Water” they had a brief and fruitful chat and it was suggested they do some recording together with the view of a doing some cool soul classics and a bunch of originals too.
Jamie & The Numbers are an incredibly tight Wellington-based band who have been around for a while now, as a band they are prolific writers of their own original material and in the context of playing northern soul tunes and other tunes in that musical genre they like to be known as The Numbers.
They are usually a 4 piece and consist of three brothers from Wainuiamata and a newly adopted Kiwi originally from Birmingham England. These guys are brimming with cool retro tunes and some barnstorming original songs played with verve and passion and their shows are always fun. In 2019 they supported “From The Jam” on their visit to New Zealand and after teaming up with Jamie have played Pasifika Festivals and open-air concerts to thousands of people.
