Tom Hamilton releases ‘I’m Your Vampire’, his first full-length project under his own name, out now via AWAL and Relix. The album follows years of work leading bands including Brothers Past, American Babies, and Ghost Light, alongside his roles with Joe Russo’s Almost Dead and Bill Kreutzmann’s Billy & the Kids. Across ten tracks, Hamilton documents personal change, isolation, and creative independence, presenting music written without compromise or distance from lived experience.
The album’s centerpiece, “Kissing With Your Eyes Closed,” was the first completed song and helped shape the direction of the record. “The balancing of heavy and lovely sounds, and the dance of kink and romance in the lyrics all acted as a perfect bellwether for what we wrote next,” Hamilton says. The album also includes “Don’t Give Up On Me” and “Walking Backwards,” with Hamilton noting, “This is how I process the world. I live my life for a few years, and then whatever happens, I try to make art out of it.”
