I have tried many different styles and subjects, and am currently inspired by my love of music, nature, and pop culture. I started playing guitar when I was 6 years old. In the beginning, I played classical guitar, but switched to electric as soon as my parents would let me get an amplifier. As a teenager on Prince Edward Island, I played high school dances with my bands Crossfire and Plastic Jesus. Since moving to St. John's, Newfoundland in 2007, I have played in the tribute bands Say It Ain't Weezer and N'ar Doubt. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6265606be864aa1d977db71c/cb859770-b918-40eb-9b0e-cf6782d86333/Jan2015gig_300px.jpg Meet Jamie Steadman - School and work I currently work for the provincial government, and also occasionally as a Plain Language translator for People First of Canada. Previously, I worked at the Music Resource Centre at Memorial University. I have also worked in music retail at The Music Collection and at Long & McQuade Musical Instruments. On Prince Edward Island, I owned and operated two businesses: a garden centre and an antique store. After completing a B.A. at Mount Allison University, I moved to St. John’s to attend Memorial University, where I completed a Masters and Ph.D. in Sociology. I chose Sociology in order to understand social, political, and economic challenges. If you’re interested, check out these brief summaries of my Ph.D. research on personal debt and my Master's research on a social movement aimed at electoral reform. People and places I was born in Ontario and lived there until my early teens, when my family moved to Prince Edward Island. I’ve also lived and worked in New Brunswick. I now make my home in St. John's, Newfoundland, which I chose not only for the university, but also because of the city's vibrant music scene. I live with my wife and daughter and our two cats, Ravenpaw and Hookfang. https://www.jamiesteadman.ca/research daily 0.75 2026-03-27 https://www.jamiesteadman.ca/contact-jamie-steadman daily 0.75 2026-03-27 https://www.jamiesteadman.ca/art daily 1.0 2026-03-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6265606be864aa1d977db71c/1676398281593-QDZYS3LD96T0N7EBB2QP/puffin.jpg Paint Punk Studio: Original artwork by Jamie Steadman Point-blank Puffin -
