ABOUT

Broken Compass Presents launched in 2023 as a boutique live music promotion team, with the goal of thinking outside of the box to bring regional and nationally touring acts to smaller stages in the Augusta area. The first event converted the general admission space in Southbound Smokehouse’s beer garden into a reserved seating listening room for acclaimed singer-songwriter Angie Aparo and support from an all-star local songwriter’s round consisting of Joe Stevenson, Shaun Piazza, & Will McCranie. Broken Compass Presents has gone on to produce concerts from Grammy Nominated Aaron Lee Tasjan, Wheatus, T. Hardy Morris, and up and coming acts like Squeaky Feet and Mike Miz.

Will has been a gigging musician for nearly 25 years and learned the world of event production and promotion through working with Gluestick Music, Adams Entertainment, and Friends With Benefits Productions. He’s been blessed with the opportunity to work on productions for artists including Umphrey’s McGee, The Avett Brothers, Jason Mraz, Ben Folds, Brothers Osborne, Gov’t Mule, The Flaming Lips, Galactic, Lil Uzi Vert, Ms. Sharon Jones, Kid Rock, Shooter Jennings, Chris Robinson Brotherhood, Greensky Bluegrass, Yonder Mountain String Band, Jon Pardi, and more…

JAMIE MCLEAN BAND

Wednesday MAY 14th, 2025
SOUTHBOUND SMOKHOUSE - N. Augusta, SC
Doors at 7pm

Jamie McLean Band creates a musical gumbo that incorporates New Orleans soul, middle Americana roots, Delta blues and New York City swagger. Jamie McLean Band is a triple threat. The group’s energetic and captivating live show is undeniable. McLean’s fiery guitar has joined the ranks of Derek Trucks, Gregg Allman, Aaron Neville, Dr. John and more on stages from from Madison Square Garden to Japan’s Fuji Rock. His blue eyed southern soul vocals ooze real emotion. And his top line songwriting chops have crafted profound, honest and heartfelt songs that will keep you singing along, dancing along and feeling like the song was written about you.
Jamie McLean Band is touring behind a fantastic new album “One Step Forward” on Harmonized Records. The album was recorded at the legendary Grand Street Studios in Brooklyn NY and features the band’s strongest and most mainstream songwriting to date. It also marks the return of original JMB member Jon Solo on keyboards! “Summer of Who Knows When” is an immediate summer anthem. “Calendar Girl” and “New York Penny Lane” are musical love letters. And the band kicks into full gear on “Too Little Too Late” and “I Believe In Love”!
The live show is where Jamie McLean Band excels and the band has shared the stage with the likes of Gregg Allman, Aaron Neville, Dr. John, Taj Mahal, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Trombone Shorty, Los Lobos, Blues Traveler, Marc Broussard and many more. Jamie Mclean Band has appeared at festivals such as Bonnaroo, Mountain Jam, Targhee Fest, Okeechobee Fest, Ottawa Blues Fest, Quebec City Summer Fest, and Warren Haynes’ Christmas Jam to name a few. McLean has also enjoyed the sponsorship of Gibson Guitars, Fuchs Amplifiers, D’Addario Strings, Blue Microphones, John Varvatos and Esquire Magazine.
