When you have a musical career as a singer and drummer that includes
writing over 1000 songs, producing 100 albums, and working with everyone
from Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley to Buddy Guy – two things come to mind.
You must be exceptionally talented. You must be Tom Hambridge.
The list of artists he has collaborated with and recorded with over the
years is almost inexhaustible. Gary Clark Jr. Eric Clapton, Van Morrison,
B.B. King, Greg Allman, Keith Richards, Jeff Beck, Kid Rock, Johnny
Winter, George Thorogood, Susan Tedeschi, Chuck Berry, Boston, Keb'
Mo, Bo Diddley. Too many to mention. Musicians such as Buddy Guy,
Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top, Eric Burdon, James Cotton, Delbert McClinton
and Joe Bonamassa have recorded Hambridge's compositions. He also
releases his own albums. His solo debut 'Still Running' dates from 1996.
Hambridge is the four-time Grammy-winning whirlwind talent behind –
among many other projects – three of blues legend Buddy Guy’s most
critically acclaimed albums: ‘Living Proof’ (2011), ‘Born To Play Guitar’
(2016), ‘The Blues Is Alive And Well’ (2018), Keb Mo’s ‘Good To Be’ (2022)
and for his work on rising blues star Christone “Kingfish” Ingram’s albums
‘662’ (2022) and ‘Kingfish’ (2020).
Hambridge has been such a prodigious creator and producer of music that
Buddy Guy says of him: “Someone like that comes along only once in a
lifetime. I call him the white Willie Dixon.”
But every once in a while, Hambridge takes time out to make an album just
for himself. His latest, Blu Ja Vu, is the first since his 2018 The NOLA
Sessions, a sparkling tribute to New Orleans music.
‘Blu Ja Vu’ is a look back at some of the songs Hambridge has written and
produced for his musical friends. A few of them return the favor here, so it’s
bluesy déjà vu all over again. But if Blu Ja Vu shows us anything, it’s that
Tom Hambridge can be counted on to create great music ... again ... and
again ... and again – Jim White (Bluestown Music)
The album currently sits at Number 1 on both the USA Blues Rock Album
and Singles Charts for the second week in a row!
"I can’t fathom the possibility that this album doesn’t garner
Hambridge Grammy consideration as a solo artist . The Recording
Academy should do the right thing and give Hambridge his fifth
Grammy for this superlative effort.” -Americana Highways
