Following tours of local venues throughout the UK, and several line-up changes, Hamfatter signed to http://www.pinkhedgehog.com Records in 2003.[citation needed]

Hamfatter's first official album, Fireworks (April 2004), enjoyed moderate success[citation needed] - particularly in and around Cambridge, where the band had built up a following.[citation needed] The album exhibits several different styles.[citation needed]

Hamfatter's next release, Girls in Graz (May 2006), continued to raise the band's UK profile.[citation needed] The title track received radio-play and became a surprise hit in Austria,[citation needed] and two European tours followed. During this time Intim Productions of Vienna produced a DVD featuring live performances, interviews and a video for the song "Fireworks".

In June 2006 Hamfatter were booked to headline the main stage at Strawberry Fair, Cambridge's summer festival. For this performance in front of an audience of several thousand, the usual three-piece line-up was enhanced by a horn section and double bass. This larger line-up has featured at most of the band's subsequent performances.

Hamfatter recorded their third studio album, entitled What Part of Hamfatter Do You Not Understand?, in summer 2007. Its lead single, "Sziget (We Get Wrecked)", reached 13 in the UK indie charts, and 54 in the UK singles charts.

NME wrote a review in 2007 saying "Hamfatter carry an arsenal of power-pop nuggets including the amazing 'Sziget' which deserves to be a hit."[citation needed]
