Richard Hawley unveils new video for ‘I Still Want You’, the second single from his latest album ‘Hollow Meadows’, a song which sees him at his most recognisably vulnerable and romantic. On October 22nd Hawley will undertake a 15-date tour of the UK and Ireland.
Named after a Sheffield landmark, Richard Hawley’s eighth studio album, Hollow Meadows, finds one of Britain’s greatest songwriters in good company, including Martin Simpson, Jarvis Cocker and Nancy Kerr for one of his finest albums yet.
Our Song of the Day is Richard Hawley’s Heart Of Oak, a heartfelt tribute to those that have nurtured and influenced him including Norma Waterson who is directly referenced in the lyrics. It’s taken from his new album Hollow Meadows which features Martin Simpson, Nancy Kerr and Jarvis Cocker.
In October 2013, ‘Bright Phoebus Revisited’ will draw together the remaining members of the Waterson family plus some very special guests in a unique celebration of the life and work of Lal and Mike through their music.
Richard Hawley, neighbour and friend of Martin Simpson encouraged him to record Vagrant Stanzas completely solo. Watch the new Richard Hawley video interview & preview tracks from the album.
On this week’s Friday Folk Music Club we have Jens L Thomsen, Lisa Hannigan & Richard Hawley, Horla Patrie, Alasdair Roberts, Tim Eriksen, Our Feathered Embers, The Boxer Rebellion, Alexi Murdoch, Wye Oak and bluesman Fred McDowell!
