About Hamlet Sweeney live
Hamlet plays live in many different forms, from solo with an acoustic guitar up to playing with his full 5 piece backing band The Handsome Strangers. Many recent gigs have been built around Hamlet accompanied by Jay Wilson (Handsome Stranger no. 1) playing a variety of instruments like piano, clarinet, guitar, cajon and singing.
Anyone who has seen Hamlet live will know that he likes to have fun onstage. He chats to the audience, responds to whatever is happening around him, gets the audience involved and is known for impromptu performances out in the middle of the crowd or walking into strange parts of the venue and singing from there. A typical show will move from parts that make you laugh to moments where you could hear a pin drop. Come along to a gig on the list above, or sign up to the mailing list in the top right corner to be informed of all future shows in your area.
