With a feel for today's sound as well as an admiration and respect for the likes of Gershwin, Porter and Berlin, composer Al Hammerman’s songs have been called "Smart and Sophisticated”... "The Perfect Blend of Pop and Jazz.”

Al Hammerman’s songs continue to garner critical acclaim both in concert and on the airwaves.

 

“A brilliant writer and composer, Hammerman’s original songs are sure to become contemporary classics.”
 – Don Wolff, KMOX AM 1120, Host of Saturday Night Jazz
