Hotly tipped Dublin act Hawke The Band to play the Hot Press Y&E Series tonight

Tonight on the Hot Press Y&E Series, we're delighted to present Hawke The Band – going live on the Hot Press Instagram at 7pm tonight...

Drawing influence from the likes of The Verve, Oasis and U2, Hawke The Band have been widely tipped as 'ones to watch' on these shores and beyond. The Dublin band rapidly rose from making home demos in their bedrooms, to recording in the famed Abbey Road and Metropolis studios in London. After opening for Aslan in 2019, they've continued to expand their sound with a series of well-received releases over the last few years – unveiling their latest single, 'Limo', back in September.

Watch the Hot Press Y&E Series – supported by the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media – live on the Hot Press Instagram (@hotpressmagazine) at 7pm each night.
