John Hampson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Hampson is the guitarist and vocalist for the band Nine Days. After record label Sony shelved Nine Days' new album So Happily Unsatisfied, the band took a break. Hampson has in the meantime become involved in a solo career, though he has stated that Nine Days has not broken up.
[edit] Solo career
In 2003, Hampson released the EP Seventeen Minutes and Thirty Eight Seconds In the Dark. The album had five tracks, including "Ultimate Love Song" and "Anywhere". It was released under his own record label, "Dirty Poet Records". This was his first time working without the help of his band-mates or a major label.
Hampson is currently working on a follow-up full length solo album. The album has been promised for the past three years, with the release date being pushed back again and again. This is due to Hampson's busy schedule juggling school, family, and music. Hampson contiues to do live shows (both solo and with Nine Days) and post on the Nine Days message board through his website. A few demos of the upcoming album are on the internet for legal download, along with unreleased music by Nine Days and Brian Desveaux, band-mate of Nine Days.
