Original. Nostalgia.
Two words that handily describe Sara Hamilton's classic country
voice, early 1980s covers and hybrid songwriting style incorporating
folk, rock, country and blues.
Remanufactured. Retro-fit.
Two words that aptly describe the limited edition and one-of-a-kind
clothing designed and produced by Tupelo Grease Co. Inspired by a
throwback lifestyle filled with smokey back-street card rooms, dimly
lit lounges, blaring rock-joints and honky-tonks, the designs are
loosely based on classic tattoo art and its many recurring themes. Each
piece is screened by hand with particular attention given to colors,
textures and placement of the designs, ensuring that no piece is
identical to another.
Sara is proud to announce the signing of her first sponsorship deal
with Houston's Tupelo Grease Co. This innovative fashion line with an
eye toward the past is making noise across the state and beyond. The
two will do so together this Friday at Sara's Best in Texas Magazine
Showcase at Waterloo Ice House in Austin.
Tupelo will provide the stage wardrobe and Sara will provide 40 minutes
of sweet song. After her performance, she'll give away a dozen
limited edition t-shirts. Tupelo Grease Co. t-shirts can be found in
Houston boutiques for $60!

So, get on down to Austin, and be on the lookout for more great events
with Tupelo Grease Co. in the coming months!
********************
The March issue of Best in Texas Magazine is on the streets. Jack
Ingram is on the cover and Sara Hamilton is inside. Their website
previews the piece this way:
Mansfield native Sara Hamilton tells Angela-Marie
Lampton that she's happy to be one of only a few
female artists making a splash on the scene.
She also feels that having 'Country Soul Brother'
Jesse Dayton produce her debut CD was exactly
right for her. "I loved that album (of Jesse's)
and felt that it had all the elements that I wanted
in my own album."
