Scott Hawley is a songwriter/guitarist/singer who is fond of the
solo-acoustic "guy-and-guitar" genre. He draws inspiration from
one-man "rock squads" such as Michael Hedges, David Wilcox, Dana Cooper and
Willy Porter. Scott strives to combine singable melodies with interesting
harmonies and thoughtful lyrics. Perhaps we'll let the songs do the rest of the talking...

Press Reviews
"Rocks me like a hurricane!" - Paul Finley, Instructor, Austin Guitar School.
"Good song." - Various Artists.
"Scott Hawley ist ein Singer-Songwriter, der seine eigene Mischung von
Folk und Alternative-Acoustic-Rock als Mitglied der lebendigen Musikszene
von Austin, Texas (USA) perfektioniert hat. Seine Faehigkeiten als
Songwriter, seine ansteckenden Melodien werden mit denen der Goo Goo
Dolls und David Wilcox verglichen. Voller Witz und Weisheit behandeln
seine Texte so universelle Themen wie Liebe, Verlust, Hoffnung und die
Suche nach Sinn. Sein Gesang wird untermalt von einer Gitarrenbegleitung,
die sich durch faszinierende Fingerfertigkeit auszeichnet." -- This
isn't really a press review, 'cause Scott had to write it to give to Ralf
at Checkpoint. But Ralf did print it in their monthly calender.
