It turns out the young actress is quite a talented singer.

Jim took the role that his brother John so famously played, entertaining the cult following the film created.
In the summer, Jamison performed at Blues Brothers Con at Old Joliet Prison, an event her dad and Dan Ackroyd have celebrated for years. “You were super amazing on stage!!! You made the Blues Brothers Con so much better with your singing, and I hope you will perform again at the next one!!!” stephenh_harms commented enthusiastically. “Dats my sister!” Jared Belushi added proudly.
Friends and family praised Jamison’s performances. In addition to singing with her famous dad, she also brought down the house on her ow, with many commenting that she was amazing and a “showstopper.” Daniel_noname454 added, “To sing Etta James’s most iconic song and OWN it! Wow! If she went on tour, I would buy tickets. If she put out an album, I would buy it. Nice job, Jamison!”
Last fall, Jamison Belushi announced on Instagram that she had moved to Nashville (presumably to pursue her singing career) and shared a video of her singing a song that she loved. This past weekend, Thayne Media shared a video of Jamison singing at The Late Great speakeasy in Nashville. Her dad, Jim Belushi, was the first to like the post.
