Well, that was truly special - @richardhawley.bsky.social in Regent’s Park, performing the Coles Corner album and more, with his band and a string section. A wonderful and emotional night - Coles Corner is one of my favourite albums. I saw Hawley on the original tour, 20 years ago.

‘Folks might have this impression of me playing this nostalgic music, but, like most musicians, I’m always looking to move forward. Nostalgia is a funny thing, though: with Coles Corner, it feels right to look back and celebrate. That record changed everything for me.’ - RH
