Jaime St. James (born ca. 1960) is the lead vocalist of the glam metal band Black N' Blue. He also served a brief stint in the mid-2000's as the lead singer of Warrant, but he left upon the return of Warrant's original lead singer Jani Lane to the line-up in 2008. He sings on the Warrant album "Born Again".

Born James Pond, St. James started out playing drums, as he had fantasized about being a rock drummer during his youth. He began his professional music career while a student at Cleveland High School, where he and classmates Dan Kurth, Barry Pendergrass, and Ray Malsom formed the Molly Hatchet-inspired combo Jet. Pond and Jet are featured prominently in the 1977 Legend, the yearbook of Cleveland High School. The band was briefly a favorite among Portland's high school crowd, and Jim's version of the Z.Z. Top song "La Grange" was an early hint of his future fame.

He has previously sung for several other bands in addition to Black N' Blue, such as Freight Trane Jane, The Glorious Things, which also featured former Warrant guitarist Billy Morris, and his own band St. James, which Billy Morris guested with. The current lead guitarist of KISS is Tommy Thayer, who was also in the band Black N' Blue. Jaime has also started his own company called Krazy Planet with two Casino Marketing Executives Brad Baldwin and Shawn Carlson.

Jaime St. James also played drums for a Kiss tribute band called Cold Gin, playing the role of Peter Criss. Tommy Thayer played guitar in this Cold Gin, playing the role of Ace Frehley. There was/is at least one other Kiss tribute band also called Cold Gin.

He co-wrote one KISS song with Gene Simmons and Scott Van Zen: "In My Head", which appeared on their album "".
