Rich in voice and richer in imagination, Hamish Hawk - a singer-songwriter from Edinburgh - creates musical portraits as vivid in lyric as they are in melody.
On Heavy Elevator, his first fully-formed album, he presents a perfect ten tracks packed with characters, incident, emotion, and tunes to hang your coat on. Hawk does all this with considerable wit, inspired by artists like Leonard Cohen, Jarvis Cocker and Randy Newman. Hawk has been twice nominated for the Scottish Album of the Year Award.
