Today, Newfoundland and Labrador is grieving the loss of a beautiful musical soul.

We have learned of the passing of Sheldon Thornhill, an accordion player whose love for our culture and traditional music shone through in every note he played. Sheldon carried the spirit of this place in his music, the stories, the dances, the laughter, and the deep sense of community that lives within our songs here in NL.

Sheldon was one of those rare musicians who didn’t just play the music, he lived it, shared it & helped keep it alive for others. His accordion spoke a language of tradition and connection that brought people together wherever he went. His presence will be deeply missed in kitchen parties, community halls, and every space where music and friendship meet.

To his family, friends, and the wider music community, we extend our deepest and most heartfelt condolences. In particular, we send sincere sympathy to Sean Sullivan of Sullivan's Songhouse, his music partner and dear friend. The bond they shared through exceptional music was something truly special, rooted in respect, joy, and a shared love for our heritage.

Somewhere beyond this world, it feels like heaven's accordion players are gathered to welcome you home, Sheldon, with familiar tunes, warm hearts, and music waiting at the gate.

Rest easy, Sheldon Thornhill. Your music will continue to echo wherever NL songs are played.

Sincere condolences from all of us in Hamilton Sound

FOR THE RECORD, a red vinyl spins & that’s where the story begins.
Behind every Hamilton Sound song is a creative journey that starts with a story, a melody, or sometimes just a conversation over a cup of coffee. Linda writes the songs, shaping the stories that become the heart of the music. Then it’s off to Sturge Studios, where the magic happens.

Paul Hamilton's accordion sets the tone Nate Hammond's bass lays down the groove, Vern Hiscock's drums drive the rhythm & Ryan Parson's mandolin adds its own distinctive touch. Together, their talents weave a musical tapestry that brings every song to life.
From writing & arranging songs to recording tracks, sharing laughs, trying new ideas, and hearing a tune come to life, every session is an adventure. Add in Derrick Sturge's expertise in recording, mixing & mastering, and before long, those ideas become polished recordings ready to be shared with the world.

"The Sound of Us" isn't just about the finished song. It's about the creative process, the friendships, the collaboration & the excitement of hearing a story come alive through music.

We write! We create! We record! We mix! We master! Most of all, we make music happen.

HOMEGROWN HEARTBEAT!

Hamilton Sound is heading back to the stage that always feels like home!

We’re delighted to return to the beautiful Princess Sheila NaGeira Theatre in Carbonear on September 19th, 2026 for a night filled with music, stories, laughter, and the songs that live right at the heart of who we are.

This show is all about connection, the kind that comes from familiar voices, shared memories, & music that feels like it was written in your own backyard. From powerful ballads to foot-stomping tunes, this is a celebration of our .

Bring your friends. Bring your stories. And get ready for an evening where the music feels close, warm, and unmistakably ours. See you there!
