HAWK’s self-titled EP out now!
“…a sharply defined melodic affair…"- Clash
"...emotional..." - Stereogum
“…stunning…” - Noisey
“…simply sublime…” - The Line of Best Fit
HAWK's self-titled EP is out now via Veta Records. To celebrate the release, HAWK are playing their first show of 2016 in London at The Victoria with support from twin sister lead four-piece The Van T's.
The video for their latest single, The Hunt, premiered on Stereogum and previous single Once Told premiered on Noisey. Both tracks are also available to stream via the band's Soundcloud page.
The Hunt and Once Told are also available to watch via the band's YouTube channel.
Matching the slightly sinister nature of the the song, the video finds the band being followed through a forest by a group of strangers. Julie Hawk's beautiful vocals flow from haunting verses to powerful choruses with crashing drums building a crescendo of noise. Continuing with their darker, grungier and ultimately bigger sound, The Hunt is the second track to be taken from the band’s upcoming self-titled EP. The band collaborated with producer Dimitri Tikovoi (Horrors, Placebo, Marianne Faithful) on The Hunt with the track mixed by Catherine Marks best known for her previous work with Wolf Alice and Howling Bells.
Since the release of their last EP Clock Hands in 2015, the band can already count the likes of The Line of Best Fit, Noisey, Clash, Music Week, The Irish Times, Radio X’s John Kennedy, Amazing Radio and BBC 6Music’s Tom Robinson and Chris Hawkins as keen supporters.
HAWK is out now via Veta Records and is available to buy on iTunes now.
