Hallowed Ground is the fourth release from country/rock/folk/psychedelic act I See Hawks In L.A.
In 2001, their eponymous debut established the Hawks signature sound: high lonesome three part harmonies, twang guitar and unadorned acoustic arrangements, with lyrics musing on mortality, whales, and the geography of a fading pre-apocalyptic L.A.
Hallowed Ground carries much that Hawks fans have grown to expect: those beautiful harmonies, timeless songwriting, and epic psychedelic guitar and steel. The Hawks have hit their stride.
The songs on Hallowed Ground cover a wide ranging territory, yet it all fits together into the Hawks underlying philosophy of Nature versus Man versus Miller Beer.
One moment you are riding high on a Topanga ridge watching gray whales breach in the Pacific sun and the next you are digging a well after the grid has gone down, canning vegetables and milking your goat. Imaginatively conceived and expertly executed, Hallowed Ground is ready to shine.
