Jamie Lidell is an electronic and soul musician from Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom, signed to Warp. Born in 1973, he is known for live performances built around improvisation, with tracks assembled on stage through voice layering and on-the-spot construction.

His music combines soul with electronic and funk elements, and his performances are described as moving between electro riffs and funk-driven rhythms. He is associated with comparisons to artists such as Sly Stone, Prince and Little Richard, reflecting the soul and performance style at the centre of his work.

Lidell is a member of Subhead and Super_Collider, and he also works under the name Jamie Lidell & The Royal Pharaohs. He has collaborated with Mocky as a writer and producer on Mocky’s albums, and Mocky in turn plays drums in Lidell’s live band.
