This is a Bob Dylan song. It is among my most favorite songs, and  I  learned it from an old Joan Baez recording.  I recorded this song by myself, although the sisters, Vicki and Alice  will eventually record it with me, I think this worked out pretty well, I hope you all like it to, and share it.

North Country Blues - Janet sings  a Bob Dylan song


A joyous collection of self-penned tunes from a promising new artist in the British Blues/Rock tradition Featuring such top class musicians as Fraser Speirs (Eddie Reader, Paulo Nutini),  Steve Hamilton (Van Morrison, Ray Charles) , Donald Lang (Tam White and the Dexters) and Own Nicholson (Southpaw, Dougie MacLean)

The Lewis Hamilton Band have been booked for over 350 shows from Farnham to Orkney and have appeared at some of the UK’s biggest blues festivals, including Hebden, Maryport and Shetland. Lewis has performed on stage with such notable musicians as Aynsley Lister (for whom he filled in vocals at a live show), Ryan McGarvey, Henrik Freischlader, Alan Nimmo and Ben Poole. His debut album Gambling Machine won the Scottish New Music Award for Scottish Jazz/Blues album of the year for 2012. Candlelight & Sympathy from Empty Roads will feature on the soundtrack of a new feature film 'Scar Tissue'.

“Lewis Hamilton has released his debut Album, entirely self-penned and recorded at the Sawmill Cottage Studios an Auchterarder, Perthshire. “Gambling Machine is just shy of 40mins long, with ten tracks of solid Blues and boogie, and Hamilton has put together a fine first release. Lewis Hamilton has a tuneful and authentic Blues voice which belies his years, but it is as a virtuoso guitarist that he excels. The album’s strength is in its variety; the Savoy Brown like boogie of the title track, the slow blues of ‘Living In A Bad Dream’ and the funky beat of another instrumental ‘Phatitude’. The tour de force is ‘Crying Shame’, six and a half minutes of classic blues guitar playing. The track sequencing which closes with ‘There You Are Now’ again featuring Fraser Speirs haunting harmonica was a smart move. While this album is more derivation than innovation, it provides a rock solid example of British Blues at its best.” Noggin 09/04/2012 (Blues matters issue 61)

“Employing the extraordinary guitar playing skills of one Lewis Hamilton, the energy of this power trio should make immediate contact with blues rock audiences. Lewis Hamilton and the Boogie Brothers are sort of a family run enterprise, with Lewis’s father Nick on bass, as the family connection grows even stronger with the guitarist’s cousin Steve handling piano and even drums on some occasions. But this is far from being a comfy, free of excitement family gathering. With Lewis at the helm, surrounded by excellent musicianship helping him in steering in the right direction, The Boogie Brothers are an ominous blood bond assembly.” Daniel Pavlica (www.rocktologist.com)

“Best breakthrough acts join welcome returners for eighth blues festival - The eighth Shetland Blues Festival takes place this year on the weekend of 9th to 11th September and features some welcome return acts plus two of the best breakthrough acts on the UK blues scene this year ... With the release of their debut album Gambling Machine, Lewis has set a benchmark for young blues guitar players throughout the UK for the depth and range of styles that he plays on this outstanding release.” Jimmy Carlyle 09/04/2012 (Shetland Times)

Blues Run the Game (Live Cover)

We have been singing this song for many years and have a lot of fun with it!!  We learned it from the Carter Family, though we kind've play it like it was a drinking song ...... ah.... well.... home recording by our friend Cliff Gammon.... Janet on melody, Alice on high harmony, Vicki on low harmony, Steve Hinnefeld is singing a great AP harmony in here too.. Laugh with us, even though it's a sad song.

Love In The Time Of Cholera

Love a bit of Soundcloud! I write songs to ideally play on some guitars I have built.
I have recently been messing with AI to bring some tunes to life, I always use the original structure and only enhance to make the songwriting the best it can.


Feel free to say hello or comment on my tracks.
