Joe Hammill Music

Joe’s new music is as much influenced by his favourite musicians as it is by changes in his life; notably becoming a husband, and becoming a parent.  

“I think I was meant to be an artist in my 30s”, he explains. “I love being in a band with my sister and I love writing songs for other people, but a lot of what I’ve written over the past couple of years, well, it just feels right to sing it myself” he adds. 

In his native Teesside, Joe is best known as one half of sibling duo Cattle & Cane, but away from the band, he’s achieved widespread success co-writing with the likes of Lucy Spraggan, Ward Thomas and Belgian star Alice On The Roof. 

Joe’s songwriting back catalogue has accumulated well over 50m streams and extensive radio support from the likes of Dermot O’Leary, Elton John and Frank Skinner, while further recognition for his songwriting talents came when Middlesbrough FC included the lyrics to his Teesside folk anthem Infant Hercules on their home shirts for the 2019 season.
