With an anguished, melodic baritone that falls somewhere in the neighborhood of Scott Walker, Richard Hawley is a songwriter, guitarist, and producer whose elegant, timeless solo work ranges from neo-psychedelic indie rock to vintage roots rock, sweeping, lushly orchestrated ballads, and highly stylized romantic pop.

He has often used his native Sheffield, England as a muse, particularly on the award-winning trilogy of Cole's Corner, Lady's Bridge, and Truelove's Gutter.
