Amit Dattani - Hummingbird
LCM Song Of The Day: ‘Hummingbird’ - Amit Dattani
We take a trip to Birmingham today to meet our next featured artist singer-songwriter Amit Dattani. Amit is known for his unique brand of roots-driven guitar and striking lyrical originality. Behind his raconteur spirit lies superb musicianship, nimble finger-picking and a versatility which has garnered a strong reputation on the live circuit, with over ten years performing across the UK and Europe under his belt. Our featured track today is a live version of ‘Hummingbird’ taken from his debut solo album ‘Santiago’ released on the 17th February.. The video was recorded by our good friend Rob Bridge at Redwood Photography.
Amit has played guitar, banjo and lap slide guitar in a number of roots bands across the Midlands, but is now embarked on a solo career. He has shared the stage with the likes of Charlie Parr, John Smith, Blind Boy Paxton, Willy Vlautin, Kathryn Williams and Mark Morris.
