Welcome to the home page of Austin Musician Jamie Hilboldt, Keyboardist, Composer, Vocalist, Musical Director.

Growing Up
I grew up in upstate New York (Elmira). I spent many years on the road as a musician finally calling Austin Texas home. I'm a keyboard player working in Austin and on the road with various shows.
My brother Lannie( Lannie
Hilboldt.com ) and I moved to Austin in 1984. He's currently the bass player with more shows than I can list here. I have a wonderful wife named Irene (another
pianist) who puts up with me most of the time, and our daughter Jazz who has grown up and moved to Manhattan.
Current Projects
I've been very lucky during my career to work with many talented and fun acts. Some of these include:
The Funk Brothers (Premier of Standing in the Shadows of Motown)
Archie Bell and the Drells
Rotel and the Hot Tomatoes (Some of the more notable shows have been the Christmas shows at the White House for the President, and the Presidents dinner in D.C.)
