Rose Baldino and Brian Buchanan first found themselves onstage together in 2014.

Rose’s band Burning Bridget Cleary was scheduled to perform, but inclement weather prevented two of her bandmates from flying. Desperate to salvage the showcase, Rose approached Brian, who she knew fronted Canadian celtic rock band Enter the Haggis. She thrust a guitar into Brian’s hands, pulled him onstage, and the two just clicked.

Four years and hundreds of shows later, HoH was booked to play a closing slot at a Colorado festival. By the oddest of coincidences, their bandmates’ flights were canceled, and a frantic Facebook post introduced Brian and Rose to local multi-instrumentalist Caroline Browning, who joined them on bass. House of Hamill became a trio.

Today, the band is a fixture on festival stages across the US, and have shared their music on the country’s premier folk stages. Their version of “Pound a Week Rise” rose to #1 on the US Folk DJ charts, and the video for their all-violin cover of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” amassed over 16 million views on Facebook, where it was shared over 400,000 times. Their latest release, “Folk Hero,” captures perfectly the energy and eclecticism of their always engaging live show.

Whether they’re ripping through a set of original jigs and reels, adding lush three-part harmonies into traditional folk ballads, or cracking up an audience with stories from the road, House of Hamill puts on a show that captivates audiences from the very first note.
