Frank Hamilton + Ryan Lauder + James Capper tickets and listings

At just 22 Frank Hamilton has had a busy 2007. He released a couple of singles, got played by Edith Bowman on Radio One, was dubbed ‘the Mike Skinner of folk’ by Music Week had his latest single feature as XFM’s record of the week.

‘Friday Nights’ was the second release on Franks DIY label and demonstrates exactly why a buzz has centered around the Cambridge born wordsmith. Penned after several messy nights in a pub where he and several other musical type folk (including Newton Faulkner & Nick Harrison) drank their student loans away, it was added to the XFM playlist upon the first mention of its release and encompasses everything that people love about Frank Hamilton and his music.

On nights when the joys of a full band and female eye candy aren’t available Frank performs alone. Such nights have developed a reputation for delivering something special. Armed with just a guitar, harmonica, some choice words and a loopstation, the quality and relevance of the songs is able to shine through even more.

“Hamilton’s success should be assured the moment the world hears how acutely his songs translate the real magic of love” - The Fly

Support comes from two Derby based singer/songwriters. James Capper and Ryan Lauder. Both fantastic performers who are well worth turning up early for.
