Tom Hambridge *20.12.1960
TOM HAMBRIDGE steht gemeinsam mit GEORGE THOROGOOD in der ersten Reihe der amerikanischen Boogiemen. Auch wenn er in Europa nahezu unbekannt ist, in Nordamerika gilt er als ganz alter Hase im Musik-Bizz. Unter dem Branding TOM HAMBRIDGE & THE RATTLESNAKES ist er seit 1996 bestens im Geschäft. Seinen rauen Boogie-Rock verfeinert er mit typischen Southern-Rock-Versatzstücken, etwas Roots- und Country-Rock sowie leicht „triefigen“ Rock-Balladen.
Von Hause aus Drummer ging TOM HAMBRIDGE bei CHUCK BERRY und ROY BUCHANAN in die Lehre und trommelte unter anderem für THE DRIFTERS. Allerdings sind es vor allem seine Produzententätigkeiten, die ihn in letzter Zeit in die Schlagzeilen rückten. So produzierte er BUDDY GUYs aktuelles, bemerkenswertes Album „Skin Deep“ und heimste für JOHNNY WINTERs „I’m A Bluesman“ und SUSAN TEDESCHIs „Just Won’t Burn“ zwei Grammy-Nominierungen ein. Seine Songwriter-Qualitäten sind gefragt und immer wieder wird Tom als Studiomusiker gesucht.

Addie Hamilton *20.12.
Addie Hamilton is a nineteen year old emmy-nominated singer/songwriter from Orange, California.
At 14 years old, Addie stumbled across her great grandmother's record player and fell in love with the timeless sounds of Peggy Lee, Benny Goodman, and Eartha Kitt. Her infatuation with 1930-60's jazz, swing, and R&B started as the staples of inspiration for her own sound.
By the age of 15 she found herself in studio songwriting. In return, her first record found placement on network television with a featured vocal. In the same year she began freelance modeling. Over the course of four years she was recognized as an internationally published model, featured by magazines such as The Powder Room, Italian Vogue, Adore Pinup, Elegant, and XCENTS. Her styling and millinery work has also been published and is often the center of each shoot.
Before her junior year of high school she had graduated from RYTMO/Berklee College of Music program for music production, theory, and business. Her knowledge of vintage deepened as she started working in a local collector’s shop, becoming familiar with all Victorian- 1960’s pop culture and fashion.
Seventeen brought her release of two cover videos on Youtube. The first was a jazz rendition of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines”. It grew to over 1.2 million views, with her take on Peggy Lee’s “Fever” following close behind.
Addie is self managed and working on projects with Grammy award winning songwriters/producers for her first album. She is moving forward in pursuing her love of songwriting, music/stage performance, and screen acting under professional critique.
