Jamie Salazar started playing drums at the beginning of the 80’s, when he was 14 years old. His first played in a school band and grew out to a professional during the middle of the 90’s.



A few drummer that Salazar has looked up to are the drummer in Police and the drummer of Jimi Hendrix.



Salazar has played drums in Bad Habits, and Midnight Sun. He also played in The Flower Kings until he departed in 2003 and was replaced by Zoltan Csörsz. Salazar was also featured on "Entering the Spectra", the debut album of Karmakanic, alongside drummer Zoltan Csörsz, and on Sofia Loell's debut album.



In 2005 Salazar was also featured as drummer in Planet Alliance, also featuring former Ozzy Osbourne bassist Bob Daisley, Hammerfall members Magnus Rosén (bass) and Anders Johansson (drums), and Narnia guitarist Carl-Johan Grimmark among others.



Currently Salazar is drummer in Last Tribe and The Tangent. Jaime replaced Zoltan Csorsz on the drumstool in The Tangent in 2004 in a mirror image of what happened in the Flower Kings, where Zoltan replaced Jaime.



Jaime's debut with the Tangent came on the second tour in April/May 2005. He brought to the band a real true Rock sensibility that allowed the whole band to expand their performance by virtue of the fact that the man is an amazing timekeeper who really knows the material well.



"A Place In The Queue" by the Tangent is Jaime's Ninth album in the Progressive Rock arena, he took the Flower Kings from their birth as far as "The Rainmaker".
