Bearded Albert Hammond Jr.

Albert Hammond played a free show last Thursday night at Hiro Ballroom in NYC. Seems he's sporting the scraggly bearded look that's all the rage with the late 20-something crew...

Perhaps it's his sincere and sweet music. Or perhaps it's the fact that he wore reading glasses while performing. In any event, his performance was perfection!"
