Folk-pop chanteuse Andrea Hamilton was well on her way to a successful music career when she was stricken with a mysterious ailment while returning from a tour in Vietnam. Doctors and specialists couldn't seem to determine just what it was, but they did tell her that she'd never sing again. Not content to give up on her dream, Hamilton put her trust in her faith and her conviction that she would continue to do what she felt she was destined to do - which was to share her passion for writing incisive, hopeful and heartfelt songs - and that she'd be the one singing them. This hell-and-back-again story is replete with hope, and Hamilton used it as inspiration for her latest album, Slow Miracle.
