Adam Hambrick
An Arkansas-raised, Nashville-based singer/songwriter, Adam Hambrick's soulful and heartfelt songs, which straddle the line between country, Americana, and pop, were performed mostly by others before he stepped out of the writer's room and into the spotlight in 2018. Raised on gospel and country music, the son of a Baptist pastor spent his formative years gathered around the family piano singing hymns and bluegrass gospel songs. A 1962 Gibson B-25 found its way into his arms at the age of 12, and Hambrick never looked back, eventually enrolling in the University of Central Arkansas and spending his free time performing in and around Little Rock. In 2011, after issuing a self-recorded ten-song set called Fighting from the Ground, country star Justin Moore caught him playing on an Arkansas morning TV show, and by 2013 Hambrick had relocated to Nashville and signed a publishing deal with Sony/ATV. One of the first songs he penned was "Old Habits," which became a hit duet for Justin Moore and Miranda Lambert. Songs for Eli Young Band and Dan + Shay followed suit, and in 2018 Hambrick decided to follow in the footsteps of former writers turned superstars Sam Hunt and Chris Stapleton and strike out on his own with his debut single, "Rockin' All Night Long."
