About This Event
Tom Hamilton has made a career of pushing rock n roll boundaries. Since 2000, Hamilton has fronted a cadre of bands, including Brothers Past, American Babies and Ghost Light. When youre in a van on the road for 20 years, you live in your bubble, you think that your world is one way and its not.
The pandemic break gave me the time to see that. Then my band broke up and my dad got sick. It takes effort to not just be jaded as we age to not look at the world in a hardened way, Hamilton says.
His album Im Your Vampire co-produced by Hamilton and Alex Farrar (MJLenderman/Wednesday) is out now via AWAL/Relix.
