Indie Artist, producer, singer, and songwriter Davey T Hamilton has updated Country while keeping the music's original soul intact. His progressive musical style is often considered a blend of Southern Rock, Country, Bluegrass, and Pop. Hamilton has a tenor voice and combines percussive mandolin strumming with loud drums and Rock guitars. His unique sound places him in a new generation of Modern Country Music. A multi-instrumentalist, Hamilton can play electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, banjo, piano, keyboards, harmonica, mandolin, and drums. He is also a highly skilled recording engineer/record producer and produces his own recordings.
Apart from music, Davey T Hamilton is very active in the promotion of Health and Wellness as an avid athlete and fitness expert. He earned a B.A. in Exercise Science from the University of Kentucky and currently owns the personal training company Nashville Mobile Personal Training. With 10 years of experience in the fitness industry, Hamilton has helped 100s of satisfied clients in the Middle Tennessee and Kentucky area reach their goals.
During his childhood, Hamilton's Mom and Dad filled the house with Elvis Presley, Waylon Jennings, Vince Gill, Alan Jackson, Lionel Ritchie, Kenny Rogers, Alabama, and the Oak Ridge Boys. During his teens, he added Hank Williams Jr., Lenny Kravitz, Dwight Yoakam, Guns N Roses, Travis Tritt and Led Zeppelin to these childhood favorites.
While attending the University of Kentucky, Hamilton started playing guitar. Within 6 weeks of learning his first song, he was performing as a front man, bass, and keyboard player for various bands. After graduation, he moved back home with his parents for six months and spent the entire time writing songs. He then decided to follow his dream and move to Nashville, TN. "I came to Nashville wide-eyed and with big dreams" says Hamilton. "After livin' there for about a month I decided I wanted to learn how to make professional recordin's. At the time, I was workin' 3 jobs and tryin' to make ends meet, so I applied for several credit cards. I maxed all 5 of them out on recordin' studio gear and self-taught myself how to make records."
