The Hawk In Paris

The Hawk in Paris is one of those lovely little gems I found on NoiseTrade. The band consists of Dan Haseltine, Jeremy Bose, and Matt Bronleewe. Dan used to be the lead singer of Jars of Clay, Jeremy is a songwriter/producer and Matt was also in Jars of Clay.

They have a fan page on facebook, which you can find here

Semi quote " The Hawk In Paris began in 2009 when the three musical friends reunited after nearly a decade." They currently have two cds out which I highly recommend you obtain both as soon as possible.

“His + Hers”, the first 7-song EP from The Hawk In Paris, offers listeners a
chance to dive deep into the melancholy of relationships. “Dinner conversations after years of getting cold, things that made us fall in love in houses that we sold,” sings Haseltine in the song “Simple Machine.” “Rolling windows up in neighborhoods we drive through in our cars, most days we can avoid them so things will stay the way they are,” he sings in “Put Your Arms Around Me,” as part social commentary, part lovers lament in the song. And although the music is layered with synthetic noises and oscillating saw tooth waves, there is no lack of emotion. When Haseltine asks, “Have you ever stood out in the rain, watched love grow cold and roll away?” We believe he is speaking from experience.

I am going to post my favorite song (so far) off of the lovely EP I obtained on NoiseTrade
