Happy Trails, Prospector

Happy Trails, Prospector is a musical marriage between five lovely Canadians, each of whom sings lead and harmony vocals, offering their audience a diverse (yet cohesive) sound with tons of energy. The five friends are: Patrick Hamilton on guitar, Sarah Hamilton on fiddle, Nathan Smith on fiddle, Miles Zurawell on banjo, and Nico Humby on bass.

This pan-Canadian supergroup brings together decades of seasoned musical expertise. As individuals they have traveled across the country and internationally with celebrated bluegrass, Americana, and rock acts. As a unit, they have instructed at bluegrass camps such as Nimblefingers in BC and Northern Lights Bluegrass and Old-Tyme in Saskatchewan, and performed at roots and folk festivals across western Canada.

In January of 2023, the group congregated in Whitehorse, YK at the Hamilton Compound to record in Bob Hamilton’s Old Crow Recording studio. Their debut album “The Good, The Bad and the Dreadful” is a compilation of the groups favourite Bluegrass, Old-Time and Classic Country songs.
