Exclusive Interview With Hamilton Loomis!

Bman:  Hi Hamilton. I appreciate you taking the time to talk with me. First I want to say that I am still enjoying the Live at the Hub DVD. It never fails to put a smile on my face. Your energy is contagious.

HL: Thanks for that!  I'm glad that energy translates to the screen...I love what I do, and I love making music.

Bman: That's very apparent! Who were your main influences as a kid. My musical tastes are pretty broad and when I first heard you what attracted me were similarities to the first Edgar Winter recordings and Johnny Guitar Watson. Then as I started to listen more, I saw you had developed an entire style of your own. Who do you currently listen to that inspires you?

HL: I was influenced in many different ways. For guitar, I listened to a lot of Freddy King and BB King.  I then got to learn from greats like Joe "Guitar" Hughes and Gatemouth Brown by not only listening, but sharing the stage. But growing up, I also listened to rock, funk, pop, and especially soul music (Stax and Motown), which influenced my writing/arranging style.  Then Bo Diddley told me, "You got to do your own thing...be original", so I basically took everything I loved and used what I thought were the best traits of all those styles and tried to make a sound of my own.  Nowadays, I tend to listen to any artists who are original-sounding, or who have something unique about them.

Bman: Funny that you should say that. When I was younger I was much more focused on specific sounds. Now I listen to a lot more variety in music and instead of the familiarity I look specifically for something different and special.

I was having dinner with some friends a while back and my friend Bob said, “Everyone in Texas has a guitar. It’s a part of life to get together with the family and play.” Is this true or an urban myth? Got me thinking because there seems to be an inordinately large number of great blues musicians from Texas.

HL: I think there's definitely some truth to that...maybe not in every single household, but it's definitely very common. 

Bman: I know you’re working your tour but is there a new recording in the works?

HL: I'm writing stuff now for a CD to be recorded and released (hopefully) by October 2012...we've already recorded 4 new tunes, and they're available for download on CdBaby and iTunes.

Bman: We’ll have to check that out! CDBaby Link

I see that you have a real personal interface with your audience as opposed another of my favorites, Jeff Beck for example, who says he prefers not to play smaller venues because he feels like people are looking at all of the flaws.

HL: Did he really say that??  I feel the opposite...while large venues like festivals and concerts are great because you get in front of a lot of people at once, small venues are sometimes even more fun because of the intimacy with the audience.  I like it when people are looking at us and you can see their facial expressions because you feel more of a connection.  Besides, flaws are part of what makes a live performance unique!

Bman:  Oh Yeah…he said that.   He’s pretty flawless as a player and a bit of a recluse really. I’m sure that he likes being appreciated but a bit shy really. Your warm personality comes through on stage and I can definitely prefer seeing you in a smaller club… but a small club is my preference in any case. I like being up on the action.

Are you constantly writing or do you have to sit down and grind it out? Doing what I do, I come across great old songs that I may have heard twice and think, wow ... what a great song for a cover. I mean, if I’ve never heard it or barely remember it … and it’s great, there’s a good likelihood that it will sound fresh played by a different talented musician.

HL: I'm constantly thinking of ideas, but when it comes down to it, I have to sit down and grind it out.  I'm very easily distracted.  I've noticed I work best under pressure, so when I have a deadline, I sit down and grind it out...a lot of that consists of sorting through my iPhone "voice memos", which is a great tool for recording little ideas while driving.

Bman: We’re a lot alike in that way.

I’m a gear head. Do you keep a stash of guitars and amps for fun or do you pretty much just have a working arsenal?

HL: I've always been lean on gear, even though I love trying new gear.  I don't own many guitars/amps/effects, and they all get used onstage, just rotated occasionally.  I'm pretty much a "one guitar" kind of guy on the road...so I guess I just have a "working arsenal", which is fine with me.

Bman: I can see that. You have honed a specific sound and it's great! Mine is more a luxury than a need.
Do you have a favorite piece of gear that you will likely always have?

HL: Well, for the last 4 years I've been in love with Music Man guitars...they're amazing!  They're so versatile and ergonomic, I can't really see myself playing much else...not for a long, long time.  Ironically, lately my trademark for many people has been those red alligator shoes I wore in the DVD, so I'll probably switch gear before I switch the shoes (laughing)!

Bman: That’s great! We’ll be watching the shoes. Is there anything else that you’d like to share with your fans?

HL: Thanks for supporting live music...without you we couldn't bring our music to the world.  Thank you!

Bman: Thank you pal for all of the great music!! I appreciate your time and hope to see you again soon!

New Release: Live At The Hub - Hamilton Loomis Band - Review

I got a copy of the new Hamilton Loomis DVD - Live At The Hub today and here I am sitting on a FRIDAY NIGHT writing a review... WHY? Because I couldn't wait to see it! And because I couldn't wait to tell you what I thought!! Well, I gotta tell you I am always concerned when I set myself up like this for something to be great and then the moment of truth comes... IT IS!! The show starts off with Best Worst Day and the band doesn't hold back for a minute. They are blazing right out of the gate! I have to commend the production crew before I go too far cause I am watching this incredible film (quality) and am also running the audio through a custom surround system (JBL studio monitors with 12" woofers and a Sunfire sub) and the bass is thumping the walls, every string snap is lifelike, the drums are crisp and articulated, the vocals are clear and in balance and the guitar is clean and the harmonics are clear and sax perfectly sequenced ... the mix is just perfect. There is no muddiness and the separation is terrific. Now back to the music!
Loomis really works (and I use that term carefully because the band is having so much fun it's hard not to get sucked right into it) this show! It's really a pleasure to see a band enjoying what they are doing as much as I am watching.
The show is a full 120 minutes packed full of (as Loomis calls it)Blues, Soul, Rock, Funk, Pop, Gumbo!The track list is:




Best Worst Day
Workin' Real Hard
99 Miles
Stuck In A Rut
That Thang
Where We Started
Voodoo Doll
My Pen
Slow Lover
Take A Number
Better Man
Build Me A Castle
Bow Wow
No No No
Road Runner / Who Do You Love
Get My Blues On


You already know that Loomis is an excellent guitar player, harmonica player and I personally think he has one of the most captivating voices in the business... absolutely perfect for the music that he plays. Stylistically I think he's right on it. No one else is doing what he is doing musically and he does it soooooo well! He shares the stage with the band as opposed to dominating it and has numerous exchanging of riffs on everything from Elvis Costello to the Guess Who. I know that you all don't know from previous writings that I am a real Loomis fan but this DVD is terrific! The band melodies are perfectly mixed and each solo riff, whether it be on the bass, drum, sax, keys, harmonica or guitar stands out from the band without being loud. Just cutting through the mix as if it was planned... go figure! One thing I love about his singing style...and he doesn't overdo it but when he does it it always makes me smile.. he stops the music and continues to sing...the rhythm continuing. It just helps to cement the groove.

The editor took the opportunity to insert a few extremely short interview clips into the performance. This is not at all distracting and actually adds to the enjoyment. It's funny though that some of the comments made by Loomis were already notes on my pad for this review...dang it!!

Loomis plays some great slide and it's not a beer bottle... No No No!! (you gotta see)!

In one short interview (I won't take away all of the surprises) Loomis tells a story from his childhood and you can just see the genuine "nice guy next door" and you have to smile.

As a bonus feature there is an extensive interview with Loomis and each band member takes us through their gear piece by piece, yes...Loomis explains what that thing is that holds his harmonica! I found this segment very entertaining as well...but you know that I'm a gear head.

The band is Hamilton Loomis (Vocal, guitar, harmonica); Kent Beatty (Bass, Vocal); Stratton Doyle (Sax, Keyboards, Vocals) and Ryan Cortez (Drums).

If you've heard Hamilton Loomis...this is everything that you could possibly want and more. If you haven't heard Hamilton Loomis...crawl out from under the rock you've been living under and watch out...the bright sun can burn in minutes!
