New H. Hawkline Tune

H. Hawkline came into my music listening with his drastically overlooked In the Pink of Condition, but he’s just about wrapped up a new LP recorded out in LA. Here you find him centered around simple percussion and piano, allowing his voice to tantalize the listener; there are a few moments where it almost has a perfect bounce to match the musical accompaniment. Eventually, the song takes on a nostalgic pop note, moving into a moment of playfulness that’s utterly brilliant; it closes with pure ecstasy, so be sure to stay tuned until the end. For now, Heavenly Recordings is just tossing out this teaser track, but be on the look out for the full length later this year.

Have You Heard H Hawkline

hawkSometimes you get in those ruts where you post the same thing over and over, and it just wears you out.  You love it, but you need something that sounds refreshing, which is why I love this new tune from H Hawkline.  Sure, there’s some similarities to bits of modern pop, with the jagged guitar chops and the song’s construction, but overall, I just felt like the vocals took this song someplace I hadn’t really been spending time with lately.  His new album, In the Pink of Condition, will be released on February 2nd via Heavenly Recordings.
