Alongside his work with the Strokes, Albert Hammond, Jr. takes his music in more eclectic, and more personal, directions on his own. On his 2006 solo debut album Yours to Keep, the singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist offered bittersweet pop that connected his music to tunesmiths ranging from Buddy Holly and the Beach Boys to Guided by Voices. He added string arrangements -- as well as rock befitting his other band -- to the mix on 2008's ambitious ¿Como Te Llama?, while 2015's Momentary Masters delivered flawlessly honed guitar pop. Hammond's music became more confessional, with 2018's Francis Trouble exploring identity crises big and small, and 2023's Melodies on Hiatus touching on his favorite styles -- including hip-hop -- while exploring the moments that make up a lifetime.
Albert Hammond Jr has also released music as a member of The Strokes.
