H Hawkline

It is an honour - nay, a privilege - to welcome back Welsh wunderkind H Hawkline for a live session.

It's an honour, nay a privilege to welcome back Welsh Wunderkind, H.Hawkline.

He was last with us in Oct 2011 with his excellent super-limited split 7" "You Say You Love Me". Now he's back with the Black Domino Box EP on Trash Aesthetics, and guess what? He's gone electric!

H Hawkline first emerged as a member of Cardiff's answer to the 'Crucial 3' - Means Heinz, which although splitting up after just two shows, also gave the world Riley favourites Cate Le Bon and Sweet Baboo!
Since then H.Hawkline has recorded two albums ("A Cup Of Salt" and "The Strange Uses Of Ox Gall") and worked with the cream of the Welsh music scene, including Richard James, Eros Child and Gruff Rhys.

According to his biog (which might not be completely trustworthy) Hawkline makes a living playing shows, presenting an experimental late night radio show, painting and decorating, purveying the graphic arts and providing voiceovers for "dubious after hours products".

Gruff Rhys calls him "Lundy's greatest export since tinned seaweed. And a far superior listen". And you can't argue with that!
