Hamilton was born and raised in Texas and became a protege of Bo Diddley at an early age. Diddley became a friend, mentor, collaborator, playing on two albums and presenting Hamilton with a red guitar which he still plays.
Hamilton was also schooled by other Texas legends such as Johnny Copeland, Gatemouth Brown, Joe ‘Guitar’ Hughes and Albert Collins.
