Brett Hammond

Gold Coast based Brett Hammond is certainly no stranger to the music scene. Brett has been writing and performing live with several different bands over the years, the most notable being Misdirection from 2004-2010. Now flying completely solo, Brett delivers a healthy blend of many different styles. From high energy rock, to dark acoustic melancholy, to jazz/funk grooves. Covering all styles and playing all instruments himself. With plenty of new material, there really is so much to come from this multi-instrumentalist.


Born in Victoria into a very musical family, Brett always had a strong sense of rhythm. Naturally starting with drums from the early age of 7 years old, he slowly moved to other instruments. Piano was always around, but he really took to guitar around 15. This became his main instrument from his mid 20’s when he moved to Queensland’s sunny Gold Coast and started doing both originals and also the local pubs “covers” scene. This is where his voice really grew. Coming from the big rock gigs with Misdirection, to the quiet Sunday sessions at the local, Brett strengthened his voice through live experience weekend after weekend.


With his multi-talented ability, this gives Brett an open love of a range of different styles, which comes out through the music he creates. Raw and full of emotion, so much more is still to come from this soloist.
