Hamilton's Danny Medakovic Has Something for Everyone on New CD

Very few songwriters around can match Danny Medakovic's skill and diversity. His latest album, The Years offers a variety of tastes for the discerning Folk/Americana connoisseur.

He even throws in some touches of  reggae, blues and more to spice things up.

Dan's lyrical storytelling is second to none as the songs veer from poetic to whimsical to impassioned and more. Each tune tells a wonderfully-told tale and has its own unique spirit.

Hamilton's Hanna Bech Debuts With Stunning, Hook-Laden EP!

There're more musical hooks in Naked Bones, the debut EP from Hamilton's Hanna Bech than in most full albums.   The lady really knows how to craft a pop folk song with beautiful lyrics.

This amazing recording kicks off infectiously and hypnotically then reaches a sonic crescendo with the powerful, Tidal Wave.  It's all finished with two delicate songs that serve as calming afterglow.

Hanna's stunning back up team includes Rachel Nolan, Jon Busuttil, Michel DeQuevedo, John Muller, Pamela Gardner, Alex Samaras, Geoff Ball and Caroline Olsen.  No matter what's thrown at them by this EP (Folk, jazz pop, classical, etc), they handle it with gusto.

If you're interested in a copy, check out her live shows and pick one up or you can download it using Bandcamp.
