Prior to a dance music career, Hamilton was a member of several jazz and blues-influenced bands (As Is, Komba Kalla) and played at the House of Blues. Her first solo single was a cover version of Gary Wright's 1975 hit "Dream Weaver", released in 1998. Her debut album, One World, was released the following year. The album also included a cover of Cheap Trick's hit "The Flame". To promote the album she opened for artists such as Bette Midler and Whitney Houston.
In 2008, her cover of "The Flame" was remixed and re-released (as "The Flame 08") and this version hit number one on the U.S. dance chart in April.
