One thing led to another and the rock group The Hamiltons was born.<\/p>\n<p>The Hamiltons are bringing old style rock back to the forefront. I hear influences of Tom Petty in their music. Robert even looks a bit like him too. \u201cTom Petty is a guy that I\u2019ve always loved and admired and someday hope to meet. I\u2019m compared to him and Neil Young sometimes, because of the uniqueness in my voice. Cranford taught me to find my own voice when we were wee lads, as we like to say.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Everyone in the band has taken on the name Hamilton. As Robert Hamilton explains, \u201cTom Petty was a Traveling Wibury. They were all Wilburys, the Ramones were all Ramones and we\u2019re all Hamiltons. They were all brothers in music and that\u2019s what The Hamiltons are.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When Cranford and Robert met, \u201cCranford taught me the basics of music and told me that I was going to be a big star. I\u2019m like, I can\u2019t even sing. I can\u2019t play guitar. Cranford told me that we didn\u2019t need to be the best singer and best guitar player. We just need to write the best songs that are real life stories.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>All the eleven songs on The Hamiltons first album <em>In Cranford We Trust <\/em>were composed by Cranford, except for one song that was co-written by both Cranford and Robert. Robert formed The Hamiltons to bring Cranford\u2019s songs to life and to share them with as many people as possible.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2117\" src=\"http:\/\/amusednow.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Robert-Hamilton-lead-singer-225x150.jpg\" alt=\"Robert Hamilton lead singer\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/amusednow.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Robert-Hamilton-lead-singer-225x150.jpg 225w, https:\/\/amusednow.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Robert-Hamilton-lead-singer-225x150-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>Greg DeLiso and his production company Monrovia Pictures produced terrific videos to showcase The Hamiltons music. The band\u2019s music producer, Jesse Wozniak, went to school with Greg. \u201cGreg has worked with me every step of the way. We have two more videos that are done, but are yet to be released, coming out in the next couple of months. We\u2019ve moved into doing the classic MTV videos of the \u201880s, where we have the story line in the video and it cuts to the band playing live. With our music and with our videos, we\u2019re taking it back to where it belongs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Hamiltons have a website and splash page. Robert Hamilton also has a website for the record label he started, Soul Fire Records.<\/p>\n<p>Robert Hamilton is the CEO, manager and lead vocal for The Hamiltons. Shane Sanders Hamilton introduced Robert to Jesse, their producer, to produce what was originally supposed to be an EP. Shane plays guitar and Jesse plays drums. Shane also helps with booking shows and promoting the band. When the band plays live, Bobby Black Hamilton Gretsch joins on guitar and vocals and Paul Barning Hamilton on bass.<\/p>\n<p>Robert explains, \u201cWe are growing towards a long-term success. Soul Fire Records will be a very successful label, after The Hamiltons get off the ground. Then, we\u2019ll be looking to sign bands to our label and I\u2019ll promote them.\u201d The Hamiltons second album <em>Angels in Love<\/em> will be released at the end of this year or early 2015.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2115\" src=\"http:\/\/amusednow.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/Robert-Hamilton-and-guitar-player-1-225x194.jpg\" alt=\"Robert Hamilton and guitar player 1\" width=\"225\" height=\"194\" \/>When I asked Robert Hamilton what advice he had for other artists, he told me: \u201cStay true to your art. Don\u2019t sell yourself out. Work very hard and then work harder, because if it\u2019s truly something you love to do, it\u2019s not like work at all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Robert also advises: \u201cDon\u2019t sell out. Don\u2019t take the first deal that comes along if it\u2019s going to compromise your integrity as an artist. As you know, there are a lot of people in this business who take advantage of people. There\u2019s no set formula and there\u2019s not set age limit. Stick to what you believe in and keep going through those obstacles. There\u2019s always going to be naysayers and haters along the way; and where there are, that means you\u2019re doing something right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Robert Hamilton continues: \u201cLife is what you make it. If you want to make it happy and good, then it is. Be somewhat business-minded. Use the tool of the internet to help you out; that\u2019s how I got my publishing company going. Educate yourself. Have a Plan B, because Plan B will help your plan A. I\u2019ve had to use my Plan B (my business) to resource my Plan A, and it\u2019s all worked out the way it\u2019s supposed to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I believe Robert Hamilton, because he smiled through our entire interview. Do your art. Be happy. It doesn\u2019t get any better than that!<\/p>\n<p>Watch our video interview on the Amused Now YouTube channel: <a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/Lw4V8TUVIP8\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/youtu.be\/Lw4V8TUVIP8<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Amused Now Featured Artist Series<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2125\" src=\"http:\/\/amusednow.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/The-Hamiltons-Logo223x275.jpg\" alt=\"The Hamiltons Logo\" width=\"223\" height=\"275\" \/>Robert Hamilton<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehamiltonsmusic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.thehamiltonsmusic.com\/<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/soulfirerecords.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/soulfirerecords.net\/<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/hamiltonsmusic\" target=\"_blank\">@hamiltonsmusic<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/The-Hamiltons\/652274131482857\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/plus.google.com\/113775039815461910840\/posts\" target=\"_blank\">Google+<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cynthia Kahn, Founder of Amused Now \u00a0 \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/amusednow\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/Amused_Now\" target=\"_blank\">@Amused_Now<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AmusedNow\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/plus.google.com\/106372266016264510992\/about\" target=\"_blank\">Google+<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/amusednow\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One day, Robert Hamilton decided to record the lyrics of a song written by his childhood friend and mentor Cranford Hamilton Nix to honor his passing.
