Ryan Hamilton releases new single, “Dreaming Screaming” . The release also serves as the official launch of the album pre-order for his forthcoming full-length, “Haunted By American Dreams”.
After stepping away from music for over three years following a personal tragedy, Ryan eventually found his way back to songwriting—this new record shaped by that experience and the process of moving forward.
“Losing a child is something I wouldn’t wish on anyone, and it changed everything for me. For a long time, I didn’t think I’d make music again—but finding my way back to it reminded me just how powerful, and therapeutic, that connection can be.”
His previous releases have enjoyed chart success on the Official UK Albums Chart and received support from Kerrang!, MOJO and Classic Rock, with SPIN describing him as “one of the best lesser-known artists of the past 35 years.”
The new album, “Haunted By American Dreams” (out July 3rd), continues this next chapter—leaning into hard truths without losing sight of melody, warmth, and connection. “Dreaming Screaming” sets the tone for the record’s themes, balancing reflection with urgency as it explores the tension between pursuit and perspective. The new album leans into alternative rock with strong Americana and country influences—guitar-led, melodic, and rooted in storytelling. It continues the sound established in his earlier work, now shaped with a deeper sense of perspective and emotional weight.
