Jamey Blaze, also known by his stage name Hiimwaterdragon, is an American record producer, singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. As a teenager, his uncle Pete Pontikoff (vocalist of Benümb) introduced him to the metal/punk scene at Gilman, among other music scenes in the Bay Area and gave him the opportunity to do production jobs for his projects signed with Relapse Records. His independent commercial debut began January 2010 with the release of his former band Zebra Mountain's album, The Band That Sucks. In 2011 Jamey would co-found a band called This Is Why I Do This. Before finishing their first full length album, they signed a seemingly non-exclusive record contract with Tate Publishing & Enterprises that same year. Their debut album, Aerophobia was released May 2012 along with a music video for "Go" , shot in Oklahoma City, OK.

He is currently the drummer for Vantana Row with his long-time friend and wife, Volly. Other than Vantana Row, Jamey is promoting his side project The World Famous Pool Boyz (TWFPBZ) as lead guitarist and co-vocalist. There are rumors of the band's relationship with Empire Distribution, though nothing has yet to surface on the internet so far to affirm it.
Vantana Row
Vantana Row is a musical duo, formed in 2015 by Jamey and Volly Blaze in Alameda, California. They are mentioned in SF Weekly and other blogs for their gimmicky 'drive by' performances, living in their van, their YouTube sitcom and using their fan's lyrics in their #iwriteforvantanarow program.
Early life
Jamey Jean Blaze was born James Marshall Pattison on January 26, 1989 in Antioch, CA. The separation of his parents at the age of five led to bi-weekly visits to his father's apartment by age ten, where he was regularly taught electric guitar. It wasn't until a few years later that he was reacquainted to electronic music production through his mother's Alesis SR-16 drum machine. Originally his mother would offer eight-year old Jamey a microphone during her bass rehearsals with the drum machine. He eventually grew accustomed to scat singing and comedic storytelling whenever invited to her drum loop rehearsal sessions. "I started recording a few years after I started playing guitar....At first I just wanted to jot down my ideas.. It quickly became more and more dramatic. The recordings became real pieces..... Art."
