TPOE 396: Hamer Place

Ross Hamer aka Hamer Place released his debut album Specials in April. A heartfelt tribute to Gerry’s - the beloved Dublin café on Montague Street that has since closed - it was recorded by Gilla Band’s Daniel Fox at Sonic Studios. The Hamer Place band features Niall Murphy (Oh Boland) on guitar and Jack and Fionn (Search Results) on rhythm. Ross has been a mainstay of the Irish music scene for years. You might know him from Jetsetter (a band I was a huge fan of over a decade ago), and he’s currently playing with Padraig Cooney and Bedroom Now as well as Postcard Versions with Paddy Ormond. In this chat we dive into Ross’s journey through Dublin’s music scene, the realities of releasing a solo album, his creative process, and plenty of other stories - including some disgusting food recipes. We also talk about music manager and former Spies member Conor Cusack, whose GoFundMe to help with a major operation has raised over €115,000.
