  • Bio

    Hailing from a beach town in Virginia, this quartet blends heavy riffs, a rolling groove, and soulful guitar melodies to produce the sound that is Freedom Hawk. Their brand of rock coupled with a high energy live show, leaves many wondering if they've stepped through a time warp, which has taken them to rock's heyday in the 70's. The origins of Freedom Hawk began in 2003 when friends Mark Cave (bass) and TR Morton (guitar; singer) were introduced to Lenny Hines (drums) through a mutual friend. Mark and TR had been jamming together for some time and could not find the right drummer to match what they were playing. From day one, the two knew they found the drummer they were looking for in Lenny. Now a trio, the three, working to refine their sound, soon realized that their songs were missing certain dynamic to achieve the sound they wanted to hear. In comes Matt Cave (guitar). Matt had been working with another band in the Virginia Beach area at the time and knew his brother Mark was looking for a second guitar player. After a few successful sessions and being asked by his brother Mark to join the group, Matt decided to be the fourth and final addition. Since forming, Freedom Hawk has been lucky enough to have shared the stage with such well known acts as The Parlor Mob, Throttlerod, Year Long Disaster, Graveyard, Dead Meadow, Totimoshi, Burning Brides and Karma To Burn. They have also been a featured act at the 2008 and 2009 W.E. Fest in Wilmington, NC and the 2008 Surf Expo in Orlando, Florida. With 2 LPs under their belt, Freedom Hawk's love of writing music, performing live, and the positive feedback from their fans keeps them inspired.

    .."East Coast's answer to Fu Manchu, keeping it simple and thick with harmonious metal groove. It wasn't heavy riffs and growls, but power riffs and soulful rock delivery wrapped in metal packaging. Freedom Hawk's sound is large, like trying to force an elephant to fit in a closet."....- Performer Magazine..Live Review (Nov 2007) .. .. .. .."Rather than deal with coming down, which everyone knows sucks, my high was kicked through the roof later that night with the dick-out rock of Virginia Beach's Freedom Hawk (Will's Pub). With a name like that, you better not be fuckin' around. Fortunately, these dudes came with a behemoth sound so wickedly triumphant that it could impel an army of stoners to ride into battle … or at least think real hard about it. With metal firmly rooted in rock's deep grooves, this is what Wolfmother would sound like if fronted by Ozzy. Power riffage and maximum volume equals hell yeah!

Live Review (Nov 2007)


"Rather than deal with coming down, which everyone knows sucks, my high was kicked through the roof later that night with the dick-out rock of Virginia Beach’s Freedom Hawk (Will’s Pub). With a name like that, you better not be fuckin’ around. Fortunately, these dudes came with a behemoth sound so wickedly triumphant that it could impel an army of stoners to ride into battle … or at least think real hard about it. With metal firmly rooted in rock’s deep grooves, this is what Wolfmother would sound like if fronted by Ozzy. Power riffage and maximum volume equals hell yeah! Why they haven’t blown up yet is one for the Sphinx."

• SUNLIGHT - CD (2008)
Loud, hard, and powerful riff rock wrapped in smooth metal packaging with melodic high pitched vocals and slight psychedelic taste. This album is best turned up loud driving in your car head bobbing the whole way until you reach your final destination.
