I was raised in Indiana. I attended Austin Peay and Indiana State Universities and graduated with a Bachelor's degree in music education. I played professionally in Houston, Tx for nearly 20 years, before starting a teaching business, which I have done now for 23 years.
During much of that time, I wrote and co-wrote songs and pitched them to country artists. A few years ago, I had a few children's pieces published in the "Hymns I Know" series by Kjos Publishing Co.
"Merry Christmas from Middle C" from Kjos Publishing WP1164 is my first published piano book for beginners It is a Christmas book with jazzy accompaniment. In 2013, I was published again by Kjos with "Ragtime and Blues" books 1 and 2 WP1173 and WP1174. In 2014, I self-published "Give God the Glory" books one and two, patterned after my first book "Merry Christmas from Middle C". I have just finished compiling "Jazzy Hymn Arrangements" books one, two, three, four, five and "Jazzy Christmas Arrangements" . https://www.sheetmusicplus.com/publishers/Phil-Hamm-sheet-music/3002027
