House of Hamill at the 443 Social Club - EVENING SHOW

TICKETS FOR THIS SHOW OPEN TO THE PUBLIC ON WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 11.

House of Hamill owes its existence - almost entirely - to a series of canceled flights.

Rose Baldino and Brian Buchanan first found themselves onstage together at the 2014 Folk Alliance International conference in Kansas City.

Rose’s band Burning Bridget Cleary was scheduled to perform, but inclement weather prevented two of her bandmates from flying. Desperate to salvage the showcase, Rose approached Brian, who she knew fronted Canadian celtic rock band Enter the Haggis. She thrust a guitar into Brian’s hands, pulled him onstage, and the two just clicked.

Four years and hundreds of shows later, the duo was booked to play a closing slot at a Colorado festival, so they hired a bass player and drummer to fill out their sound. By the oddest of coincidences, their hired bandmates’ flights were canceled the day of the show. A frantic Facebook post introduced Brian and Rose to local musician Caroline Browning, who joined them on bass for the weekend. Once again, the chemistry was undeniable, and House of Hamill became a trio.

Today, Pennsylvania-based House of Hamill is a fixture on festival stages across the US, and have shared their music and stories on the country’s premier folk stages. Their original song “Banks of the Brandywine” was a Grand Prize winner in the 2024 John Lennon Songwriting Contest, and the video for their all-violin cover of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” amassed over 16 million views on Facebook, where it was shared over 400,000 times.

The band's newest release, “Wildfire,” marks House of Hamill's most compelling work to date. Featuring their strongest and most exciting songwriting, “Wildfire” is filled with lyrical depth, sophisticated vocal and instrumental arrangements, and hooks that are simply irresistible. This album captures the vibrant energy and creativity that have become the hallmarks of a House of Hamill live show.

“Great hooks, eclectic arrangements and tuneful melodies that will certainly reach listeners from all walks of life.” - Jeff Goble —

“An extraordinary musical experience.” - Anita Lock — Irish Music Magazine - April 2022 Issue

“Absolutely electrifying... mesmerizing melodies that redefine what’s traditional, with personality and verve.” - Paul MacArthur —

Whether they’re ripping through a set of original jigs and reels, adding lush three-part harmonies into traditional folk ballads, or cracking up an audience with stories from the road, House of Hamill puts on a show that captivates audiences from the very first note.

*** SPRING FOOD DRIVE ***

At every HOUSE OF HAMILL show, the band collects non-perishable food items for local food banks and pantries, so we decided to join forces and hold another one of our "Meal in a Bag" food drives to benefit the SYRACUSE NORTHEAST COMMUNITY CENTER.

We'll be collecting ingredients and assembling bags filled with a complete meal kit of shelf-stable pantry items, along with a recipe card.

We'll provide shopping lists and handle printing the cards.

You can find shopping lists and guidelines on our website HERE.

The "Meal in a Bag" is a thoughtful, tangible way to provide a warm meal to a family in need of a little extra help.
