Shelley Hamilton's dynamic lead vocals are on full display in the single "Carry On" with a release date October 3rd, 2024. This reconversion of the song creates an entirely new space for the historically rooted music genre of country reggae.
The new rendition of "Carry On" is produced by Canadian reggae band Reggaddiction and is featured on their latest album "Reggae Rodeo". It's an exciting collaboration and a ground-breaking part of Canadian music history. "Carry On" blends country music with Jamaican reggae to create a unique genre: Canadian Country Reggae.
But Shelley Hamilton can’t be pigeon-holed into a specific sound or category; her talent is all encompassing with a sound and style all of her own.
I caught up with her manager Lynx Dean at his home here in Toronto, Canada.
“Talent like Shelley comes along once in a lifetime. Honestly, she could sing the phone book and the audience would love it.”
Lynx Dean is no stranger to success, being the lead of the popular band, Random Order, who broke into the scene in the 90’s and have a huge following to this day.”
