INFO
Mike Hamel is a singer/songwriter with a bit of a different approach. Though his background is in the alternative genre, his style stems from many different musical influences, resulting in an infectious, dynamic batch of songs.
"Usually the term singer - songwriter takes on a folk ideal but my music is so much more than that," he explains. "It's visceral, it's energetic, it's passionate... I want people to feel something."
Based out of Beacon, NY, Mike has garnered a following in the Hudson Valley area and beyond thanks to his intensely emotional and energetic live shows. Whether it's with a full band or stripped down to just himself and a guitar, Mike manages to capture the room.
Hamel has independently released 3 eps and 1 covid mixtape: "Where the Change Is" (2012), "Truth" (2015), "Lies" (2016), and "Throw Me Away" (2020, Bandcamp exclusive). All of which are available online and in choice brick-and-mortar retailers.
You can also catch Mike playing guitar and singing in Strange Candy; a raucous cover band featuring Terrance Trama and Matt Byrne (of Hatebreed).
