The thrill of discovering something unique and precious hidden in the middle of a pile of dusty old relics. That's the feeling you get when hearing Surrey singer songwriter Jamie Tipson, aka Second Hand Poet" Glastonbury Emerging Talent Judge "You are hard-pressed to compare anyone to Second Hand Poet directly; there is an individuality and heart within his templates that offer something fresh and vibrant. That said, there are embers of modern icons, thus ensuring that Tipson’s music will appeal and capture a wide sector of music-lovers." musicmusingandsuch "To experience Second Hand Poet washing over your mind is to allow all senses to tune inwards and reflect on ourselves with a better understanding on how it should feel to be no more than flesh, bone and human soul."
