Jamie Moses (born August 30, 1955 ) is an English-American rock and pop musician.

Born in the United Kingdom to an English mother and a US father, Moses grew up in the US and Japan, but now lives in England. He is a session and studio musician on the international rock and pop scene, mainly as a guitarist, but also as a bassist and singer.

At the beginning of his career, Moses had modest chart successes with his own bands in the 1970s and 1980s. With Merlin (1974–1978) and Broken English (1987–1991), where he partly contributed the lead vocals, he managed to place some singles in the lower ranges of the US Top 100. In 1994 he also founded the SAS Band with Queens live keyboardist Spike Edney , a cover band that performs live all over Europe.

Much more successful was and is Moses as a session and studio musician. Since the beginning of the 1990s, Moses has mainly worked as a freelance musician. He worked live on stage and partly in the studio for Pete Townshend , Hollies , Pretenders , Bob Geldof , Eric Burdon , Mike & the Mechanics , Roger Chapman , Paul Young , Gary Barlow , Tony Hadley and Brian May, among others . From 2004 to 2008 he was the second guitarist on the live performances of Queen + Paul Rodgers .
