Doug Hawk Music

Doug Hawk is a funk/jazz/R&B artist hailing from Easton, PA. Doug presents a unique, cerebral style, which can be described as at once historically soulful yet progressively hip. His music eschews the typical thematic content of the modern pop catalog — aligning instead with the more yearning, deeply personal sentiments of rebel and protest music. Consequently, his compositions are more positive affirmations than they are songs. His empathic lyrical content is supported by a beautiful, uniquely refined accompaniment, utilizing melodies and chord changes that travel beyond the usual and expected. This is intelligent, inspiring, grooving music that not only makes you think but move, as well. Comparisons to artists such as Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai and Steely Dan are accurate but in a purely derivative sense. Hawk has emphatically forged his own unique sound and this is incredibly evident on his latest album “Songs for Humans.”
