Phillip Lammonds

Phillip Lammonds is a songwriter and talented instrumentalist from the musically rich mountains of North Carolina. From his childhood in the mountains to his time in the South Carolina Lowcountry, it was this melting pot of sounds and rhythms that formed his musical sensibilities.

After college, Phillip was a founder of The Blue Dogs, a beloved and critically acclaimed bluegrass and rock inspired jam band. He then started his family in Pawley’s Island, South Carolina while working as a fishing guide, a falconer, and the co-owner of the islands Sotheby’s real estate company. All the while, Phillip wrote songs and traveled to Nashville to pitch them. After many years, lots of miles traveled to Nashville, and cuts on major artist -Phillip moved to music city to pursue songwriting full time. He stepped onto the scene with a publishing deal from Curb Entertainment. Phillip’s songs have been recorded by artists like Hootie and the Blowfish, Josh Turner, Lee Brice, Charles Esten, Kellie Pickler, Craig Morgan, Edwin McCain, Jerrod Niemann, Mo Pitney, and Dylan Scott.

Camp also co-produced a compilation tribute album for his friend and hero Guy Clark, which was #1 on the Americana Charts for several weeks in the spring of 2012, and voted Americana Album Of The Year 2012.

Camp’s music sprawls across the lines that divide Country, Americana, Bluegrass, and roots Rock. His solo records, The self-titled SHAWN CAMP (Warner Bros), Lucky Silver Dollar, Fireball and 1994, further prove Camp to be one of Nashville’s most unique talents. He also just finished recording a project with his new band The World Famous Headliners; an All Star Band made up of Camp and veteran writers Big Al Anderson and Pat McLaughlin, along with Michael Rhodes and Greg Morrow. The World Famous Headliners new album “Now Appearing”, set for release in January 2016.

The band performs and records only the music of Flatt and Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys. They capture the essence of the sounds and that period of time in an effort to bring the old style back into the psyche of the modern world. The Earls Of Leicester won the Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album (2015).

Then, The Earls Of Leicester made a huge sweep at The International Bluegrass Music Association’s IBMA Awards Show in October 2016, winning Entertainer Of The Year, Album Of The Year, Instrumental Group Of The Year, Gospel Recorded Performance Of The Year withShawn Camp – Male Vocalist Of The Year & Jerry Douglas – Dobro Player Of The Year.

Shawn was the Entertainer of the Year in 2016 and 2017 and Male Vocalist of the Year in 2017.

Any time day or night, he is either writing songs, performing shows, or recording. His life’s work, speaks for itself.
