Singer/songwriter Adam Hammer is something new wrapped in something unexpectedly familiar. His blend of original folk, alternative, blues and rock with a dash of alt-country pairs well with Tom Waits, The Lumineers, Roger Miller and Gordon Lightfoot.

Hammer has toured extensively throughout the Midwest and other parts of the country with his solo show and various bands over the past 20-plus years. His latest collection of soon-to-be-released songs focus on the nostalgia of growing up in small-town Minnesota and life through a simpler lens.
