Our Story

Hailing from Minneapolis, Heavy for the Hawk is a six-piece band with members originating from New Jersey, Maine and here in Minnesota.

Their collective musical interests run deep, and as such they bring a dynamic mix of music to their shows. You’ll hear anything from Indie Folk/Alt/Rock, Oldies, and Americana to moving renditions of Soul and R&B. Many of the band mates write their own music, so you’ll likely hear some originals as well.

Heavy for the Hawk is always looking to include songs that are laid to the wayside by mainstream radio. They love dusting off nostalgic favorites that you’ve maybe forgotten about, and also mixing in some music from today’s talented songwriters too, making it a show anyone can enjoy.

Featuring harmonies from their two vocalists (who happen to be a duo out in the real world too), they aim to bring the listener along with them as they move through songs.

Come to a show, and you just might discover some new music to soothe your soul!
