Trina Hamlin is an artist with a genuine soul who knowingly speaks for each of us who revel in both the joy and pain of longing. Her pure voice and unspoiled powerful presence have gained the singer-songwriter from Minneapolis a steady national following since she began playing solo shows on the downtown New York City club scene. Trina attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, graduating with a degree in Professional Music. She then moved to New York City and began playing the club circuit in the band Blue Leaves, as she honed her songwriting skills and found her voice.

Demand has grown steadily. While touring acoustically across the country she has played shows with notables such as Paula Cole, Duncan Sheik, Ricki Lee Jones and John Hiatt. She was chosen as one of the "Most Wanted New Artists" at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and as an alumnus of the Newport Folk Festival, performed to a sold out crowd along with Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams and the Indigo Girls. She has performed on The Late Show with Conan O' Brien with the "Suits" and her music has been heard in the CBS-TV movie "Friends at Last," starring Kathleen Turner as well as on the WB's "Dawson's Creek".

Trina has jokingly said that the blues were created in her native Minnesota . . . she's only kidding, of course — but nevertheless, there's something in the water and Trina went and had herself a drink. Maybe that's why she's one hell of a soulful interpreter. These days, live and on record, you'll find Trina accompanying herself on guitar, harmonica and piano, divulging your own thoughts back to you as she works that keen sense of intuition of hers. Take a moment, live or on record, and experience Trina for yourself.
