Hamilton Leithauser

HAMILTON LEITHAUSER IN CONCERT:Hamilton Leithauser rose to indie rock stardom in the '00s as frontman for The Walkmen, but lately it's his ambitious solo efforts that are earning him praise. Leithauser's reedy, powerful voice remained front and center on his 2014 solo debut Black Hours, giving fans of The Walkmen plenty to love as he explored a wildly diverse range of retro genres over the record's 14 tracks. From the Sinatra-esque croon of "5 AM" to the Bob Dylan-inspired vocals of "Alexandra", Leithauser effectively evokes his forebears while never resorting to imitation. A seasoned performer who has graced the stages of some of the world's biggest festivals, Leithauser has ticket buyers eagerly awaiting his upcoming tour dates with Spoon and Broken Bells.

the teragram ballroom is the coolest location for concerts that i have ever been to. it's an intimate setting, and most people don't show up until an hour before the event or even the time the event starts. it is a laid back atmosphere with great sound. hamilton leithauser and rostam are amazing on their own, but together: PHENOMENAL. hamilton screams and belts out his tunes with a passion that is unparalleled and rostam plays just about every instrument in accompaniment. it is fantastic and sounds really similar to the recorded version, with live twists here and there. hamilton has a really great voice and never falters or falls flat or sharp the whole performance. he and rostam talked to each other briefly throughout the show and their chemistry is undeniable. they work really well together and i wish i could see them again. fantastic, fantastic sound. 11/10

Joe's Pub concert last year was unbelievable. Leithauser is hands down my favorite musician working today.

The dude has pipes and blows the doors off the venue. All the women cried and got pregnant by just being there!

This was one of the best shows I've been to. His voice is amazing and the effort he puts into his performance is great. If he comes to your area you should DEFINITELY check him out. Lucy Dacus was the opening act and she was super talented as well.

I have seen Hamilton Leithauser a half dozen times when he led up the Walkmen, and I saw him on his own back in January at the Bowery Ballroom on his own. I feel like he is one of the best live performers out there today. The energy that he puts into his performances is palpable and you can't help but get psyched up when you are right there listening to him. If you have even a passing appreciation of his music, you need to see him in concert. You won't regret it!

I was very much looking forward to see Hamilton perform as I have already been an avid Walkmen fan and I was not disappointed! The show was fantastic. Great music, amazing stage presence! A show I would not have wanted to miss! Can't wait to see what the future holds!

Seeing Hamilton Leithauser live is like being caressed by an angel, a really cool angel who takes you to an awesome party but makes you feel like you're a part of it. As a dedicated Walkmen fan, I was still excited to see Hamilton solo and I wasn't disappointed. With a voice like that, he could seriously just turn away from the audience like Sia and sing for hours straight in the dark and I would be happier than if he also added a pyrotechnic light show. This is not to say I like pyrotechnics, rather, I'm glad he doesn't employ them. Because the real fire happens every time he opens his mouth. Go see/hear him. He is amazing.

Hamilton's has the best voice in the business hands down. Live show is amazing - have always been a fan of the Walkmen and his new solo album is just as good if not better - must see!!!

I've been a Walkmen fan for years and the only silver lining to their break-up has been the strength of some of the off-shoot projects that have been released since. I saw Hamilton Leithauser open for Spoon, with Paul Maroon of the Walkmen on lead guitar. It was a great set that ran through most of his album along with a Sinatra cover and some b-sides I hadn't heard before (the beautiful Utrecht and stunning I'll Never Love Again). I'd seen the Walkmen a couple times in concert before and somehow after years of shout-singing, Leithauser's voice has really emerged with quite a range that really held up in concert, even when it was really being pushed to the limit. I will definitely see him again when he's on tour.

I am a big fan of Hamilton Leithauser, and his voice is truly impressive, but the set list was far too short. From walking onto the stage to the last note of the encore was about approximately 45 minutes. When walking back out to perform the encore he even stated to the audience "we really don't know that many songs". I love the new album, and hope they learn/write more songs soon. In the meantime, I would not recommend spending the money to see them live.
