Emanating from the barrier dunes of Virginia, FREEDOM HAWK‘s heavy riffs, rolling groove, and soulful guitar melodies fuse together to produce a sound that is distinctly their own. Widely recognized as one of the leading forces in the retro-rock movement, their exceptional brand of heavy and high energy live shows leave many questioning whether they’ve stepped through a time warp directly out of the ’70s hard rock heyday.

FREEDOM HAWK will be touring in support of their Ripple Music release, a remastered version of the band’s 2008 self-released debut Sunlight on CD, digital, and vinyl formats. Fans of Clutch, Fu Manchu, Crobot, Black Sabbath, Grand Funk, Greenleaf, Lord Fowl, Gozu, Lo-Pan, ASG, and all things that rock, pay heed

Additionally, Freedom Hawk will be sure to plow into their Into Your Mind full-length, issued in 2015 via Small Stone. More Fuzz dubbed the record the, “epitome of pure grade rock n’ roll,” Maximum Volume Music crowned it, “complex and magnificent,” while The Sludgelord applauded the band’s “immense riffs and licks, explosive drumming, engaging vocals and solid bass playing”
