Hamilton Loomis

McGonigel’s Mucky Duck presents Hamilton Loomis.

“If blues, soul, and rock can be said to form a triangle, you’ll find Hamilton Loomis right in the center of it”, says Guitar Player Magazine. An apt description, as young Loomis is one of the young artists at the forefront of bringing blues based American music into the 21st century and redefining it for a contemporary audience.

Spanning youth and tradition, Loomis bridges the gap between generations of music-lovers both in the U.S. and around the world.

Whereas similar aged acts like Black Keys, Robert Randolph and White Stripes play American rock music with heavy blues influences, Loomis plays the inverse. His is an undeniably blues based artist escalating into what All Music Guide calls “…a mixed bag of modern blues, modern funk, and slick soul.”

“Innovate, don’t imitate.” Hamilton Loomis took his mentor, Bo Diddley’s advice. It speaks volumes when the likes of Diddley, Johnny “Clyde” Copeland, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, and Albert Collins take you under their wings. The twenty-something Texas sensation isn’t just another cat-in-a-hat with a Strat. He has crafted his blues roots into a funk-a-fied recipe all his own.
