About Danny:

If you haven't heard of Danny Hamilton, perhaps it's because, in theory, he shouldn't exist! A regular, normal, nice guy who proves that it's possible to have some pretty messed up stuff go on in your life and still remain a positive, calm, peaceful, kind-hearted human being. He's a little crazy, a little goofy, not all that interested in image or appearances, but damn can this boy write a catchy song and get a crowd on its feet with his Delta blues-inspired roots rock and infectious vocals!

Born and raised in Torrance, California, Danny Hamilton was just a regular kid with a talent for drawing and painting, until he was hit head-on by a truck at age fourteen and was told that he may never walk again. While stuck in a wheelchair, Hamilton picked up a guitar and taught himself to play. He attended his 8th grade graduation in that wheelchair, and to the disbelief of family and doctors, showed up on the first day of high school walking on his own, only three months later! There he discovered classic rock and soon started writing his own music; mostly love songs to impress the girls. A few years later, a second tragedy hit Hamilton when his mother was tragically killed. It was this event that sparked the songs heard on Hamilton's first album, Motherless Child, which he recorded at home at age 18. His second self-recorded album, Believe, is a sort of diary of the events that followed as Hamilton grieved and healed. His third album, an acoustic collection simply titled, Acoustic, has overtones of moving on and acceptance of his role and responsibility as an artist and songwriter. His latest release, Where Do I Fit In, is a celebration of life, being grateful for all of its experiences and blessings, and recognizing and appreciating all of the beauty in the world.

Roots Rock / Alternative Country?

No matter what you call the music, it's catching on in a big way! In addition to being listed in Music Connection Magazine's HOT 100 list for 2007, Danny was nominated at the 2002 & 2005 Los Angeles Music Awards for "Male, Singer-Songwriter of the Year" and in 2003 for "Independent Album of the Year." That album, 'Where Do I Fit In', was Danny's fourth independent release, but the first to include members of the Mudslingers. It is receiving rave reviews and is currently being played on indie and college radio stations all over the country!

With hand percussion, funky bass lines, female backup vocalists, whaling harmonicas, tribal chants, guitars, keys, drums, catchy melodies, and more raw energy and emotion than you can shake a stick at, you're guaranteed to move or be moved! IndieMusic.com said; "Delivers notable and powerful performances with profoundly entertaining impact!" while FMSound.net called the music "Quite pleasing! Listeners will appreciate the fresh originality of Hamilton's sound."

Catch Danny and the boys at The Whisky A Go-Go, The Hard Rock Cafe, B.B. Kings, The Mint, Molly Malone's, The Joint, Club Lingerie, The Gig, Club Lush or many of the other most popular live music venues in the Los Angeles & Hollywood areas!
