Join us for a live set and signing with the Tom Hamilton Band at Amoeba SF on Sunday, March 22nd at 2pm! Purchase their new album, I’m Your Vampire (out now via AWAL/Relix), at Amoeba SF and get it signed after the set. This is a free/all-ages event.

Tom Hamilton has spent the last 30 years fronting several bands over a handful of genres, including Brothers Past, American Babies, Ghost Light, and he also sings and plays lead guitar in Joe Russo’s Almost Dead.

It wasn’t until a series of personal and societal crises compelled the Philadelphia based musician/songwriter/producer to reconsider his approach and finally forge ahead under his own name.

“When you're in a van on the road for 20 years, you live in your bubble, you think that your world is one way and it's not. The pandemic break gave me the time to see that. Then my band broke up and my dad got sick. The only refuge I had was the studio.”

I’m Your Vampire, Hamilton’s most personal effort, yet is a 10 song suite wreathed in tattered flannel rock & roll that encapsulates Hamilton’s salvation in isolation, as he sorts through the darkness to find a pinpoint of light.

“It takes effort to not just be jaded as we age, to not look at the world in a hardened way,” Hamilton says. “Yeah, it's a dark, dark fucking time, let's make some lemonade.”

His album I’m Your Vampire, co-produced by Hamilton and Alex Farrar (MJ Lenderman/Wednesday), is out now via AWAL/Relix.
