Biography
Glamour Hammer is the nom de plume of Swedish-based producer, songwriter and vocalist Adam Jonsson.
In the comfort of his home studio, Glamour Hammer swings back and forth between creating dance-oriented disco house and jazz-infused dream pop with a sense of escapism and tongue-in-cheek attitude while always aspiring for a sense of timelessness and analogue feel.
Drawing inspiration from a multitude of genres the most influential are 1970s-80s Funk, Disco, Boggie, Classic rock, Latin rhythms and Afropop.
Apart from his Glamour Hammer persona, Adam is also a member of the synthpop duo LCTRISC.
In the year of 2019 Glamour Hammer made his debut with the slow paced disco ballad Stay with Me which was followed by a breakthrough nu-disco remix by the acclaimed producer Oliver Nelson in the summer of 2020 as well as an euphoric Tech house edit by the promising Joos (CH).
With the release of the mini-album Tropical Suite, Pt. 1 Glamour Hammer introduced a wider soundscape incorporating bits of reggae dub, bombastic brass parts and Gorillaz-esque trip-hop soul.
In December 2020 Glamour Hammer widened his audience while starring on compilation album Too Slow to Disco NEO presents: The Sunset Manifesto alongside prominent artists such as Yuksek, Poolside, Kraak & Smaak, Moods and more. Included on this mixtape was the urban soul gem Is It True featuring rapper Toni Sauna.
