Purchase these songs at www.hawkeyeband.com! Hang around the Los Angeles music scene and you?re destined to hear the name Hawkeye ? a band recognized as torchbearers of the Southern California Americana revival. Drawing from the roots of rock music - Classic, Folk, Country, Southern and Indie - Hawkeye?s stunning harmonies are the first thing that hit you. Fronted by the double-fisted vocal punch of Dawn McCoy and Kalai King, Hawkeye announces their signature sound with a melding of voices. McCoy commands attention projecting a vulnerable confidence ? her subtle, Texas twang resonating in every lyric. She just as easily supports King, wrapping sweetly around his warm baritone, as she does taking the lead. Galvanized by the high-lonesome third harmony of bassist/fiddler Scott Miller and completed by the gritty country-blues guitar work of Jo Almeida, Hawkeye is at once familiar and new. Hawkeye?s songs are portraits of simple complexities. Layers of sonic textures give way to poignant, intelligent lyrics that follow a natural, narrative flow. Music Connection says? ?Tasty Americana Southern-Rock with split vocals and true grit. Together, (Hawkeye) has found that proverbial yin/yang?the fusion of girl/guy vocals is definitely a hit!? Thelamusicscene.com adds? "(Hawkeye) follows the style of (Bruce) Springsteen, armed with guitars, serious vocals, and a charismatic presence. Stunning harmonies and subtle and slow building instrumentation illustrate the band?s cohesive sound." Hawkeye has been in good company, having played sold-out shows with Junior Brown, Robert Earl Keen, Chris Whitley, Jim Lauderdale, Chocolate Genius and Chris Knight. Hosting ?Third Friday?s with Hawkeye? every month at the esteemed Hotel Café in Hollywood, CA has seen Hawkeye share the stage with the likes of Rami Jaffe (The Wallflowers) and such up-and-comers as Minibar, Eastmountainsouth, Alexi Murdoch and Gary Jules. Their debut E.P. ?Red?s Cafe? landed on the ?Best Sellers? list at Miles of Music.com and the first single Home made ?Top Ten Songs of the Year? on Garageband.com. They are currently working on their follow up full-length record. You can purchase Hawkeye's debut EP, Red's Cafe at www.milesofmusic.com.
