Russ Hamilton was an English singer-songwriter who had a brief yet impactful career in the late 1950s. His musical style was a blend of traditional pop and early rock and roll, with his smooth, emotive vocals often accompanied by guitar, piano, and orchestral backing. Hamilton achieved significant success with his hit singles "Rainbow" and "We Will Make Love," both of which reached the Top 10 in the UK Singles Chart. His music, while no longer mainstream, remains a notable example of the transitional period between post-war pop standards and the burgeoning rock and roll era.
