Andromeda by Tina & the Hams

It’s late 2022 and Tina & The Hams have had an amazing year. Their album ‘Wake The Babies’ received extensive independent airplay in Australia and the US, including the legendary FM station KEXP in Seattle, and debuted in July at number 6 on the Australian Independent Record (AIR) label charts.

To round out the year, the Hams release Andromeda - looking outwards at last, with an optimistic gaze and beckoning you to join them in the stars. Produced (again) by Craig Tigwell with Damian Frood and mastered by Joe Carra at Crystal Mastering in Melbourne, the song is chock full of memorable hooks and swelling choruses. Is this an early preview of what’s to come with album 2? Only time will tell.

In addition to Andromeda, Tina & The Hams have revisited the early track PetRicHor and given it a tough going over - more closely representing the Hams’ live sound.
