Hamish Hawk's Blurbs
About me:
Hello! I'm Hamish Hawk from Edinburgh, thanks for visiting my page. Feel free to have a listen to my music below! Here's a few words from my recently written biog!
Vivian Comma paints the Madonna, visibly on the verge of fainting. Christopher Wren walks amongst us once more, forswearing designing cathedrals for singing them. One half of the 1973 Mauritian Badminton Doubles Champions has a perfect serve. The boy who inhabits Track Three of John Lennonβs Imagine repeat-dials, passive-aggressively, to Tiree. A funeral, swinging to the Gay Gordons. A latter-day Paul the Apostle is offended by the sight of Edinburgh Castle β and, infinitesimally worse, canβt finish a beer.
These are the people and places, scenes and scenarios of the songs of Hamish Hawk.
Rich of voice and even richer of imagination, the singer-songwriter from Edinburgh creates musical pen-portraits as vivid in lyric as they are in melody. In all the wholly best ways, these are chamber pop songs that have swallowed both a dictionary and a compendium of modern urban (and island) fairy tales. And, on Heavy Elevator, his first fully-formed album, this prolific artist presents a perfect ten tracks packed with characters, incident, emotion, geographical/artistic references and tunes to hang your coat on.
Here's the video for my new single 'Caterpillar' directed by our friend Ellen De Faux who's recently been nominated for a grammy. Check it out!
Who I'd like to meet:
Music fans from around the world - if you like The Smiths, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Pulp or The Magnetic Fields - I might be up your street!
