Dawn and Hawkes
Miranda Dawn and Chris Hawkes first met when he crossed an Austin barroom floor and asked her to dance. The first time they sang together they found a sound Texas Monthly calls undeniably intimate".
Their initial duo effort, Golden Heart, climbed to No. 25 in Billboards Folk chart and landed at No. 2 in iTunes singer-songwriter albums and kicked off a whirlwind of cross-country touring and co-writing. Dawn and Hawkes recorded their second album, Yours and Mine, in between tour dates with influential artists Alison Krauss & Dan Tyminski, Patty Griffin, Old 97s, Robert Earl Keen and showcasing at festivals like Austin City Limits, Folk Alliance, AmericanaFest, South By Southwest and TEDx on tours in the US and abroad in Denmark, Germany and Australia. We'd tour, come home inspired, record a song, tour, rinse and repeat explains Dawn.
Though not without moments of sobering reflection, Yours and Mine is foremost a celebration of lifes genuinely beautiful moments that make us want to take another breath and another step despite uncertainty. Acoustic Guitar hails the musicality of Yours and Mine, as Impeccable vocal harmonies and instrumentation Huffington Post summarizes Transcendent alternative-folk you will find yourself craving more from this amazing, dynamic duo.
The duo stored their possessions and lived on the road, drawing a lyrical soundtrack from American deserts and mountains, to the South Australian coast while navigating a shared journey through mortality, grief and compassion for differing perspectives. Upon returning to Austin, they finished self-producing their second full-length album, The Other Side, released in July 2018. The Austin American Statesman calls it 10 new tracks of sweet folk-rock instantly appealing tunes rooted in the singer songwriter heyday of the early 1970s, they also fit well into the modern-day indie-folk revival.
In a time when the world seems more divided than ever, this album explores themes of empathy, hope, and finding our common humanity. While on our own adventures of ups and downs we found ourselves exploring themes of empathizing with the other side, recounts Miranda Dawn. We hope that you will hear this album and share it with someone you love, because these are anthems of compassion for everyone who's ever felt on 'The Other Side.'
