Hawklords, the band comprising former members of seminal space rock group, Hawkwind, will be kicking off their UK tour at Frome’s Cheese and Grain on Thursday 13th October.
The band are about to hit the road in support of their fifth album, Fusion, to be released on 7th October.
Originally formed by Robert Calvert and Dave Brock of Hawkwind, from the ashes of The Sonic Assassins in 1978, the current members of Hawklords are: Harvey Bainbridge, Dave Pearce, Jerry Richards, Ron Tree, and Tom Ashurst.
The new album ‘Fusion’ is described by the band as ‘an exploration of the themes of sex, death, art, time and identity’.
“It is another sonic slab of classic British space-rock, with ‘real’ songs and a strangely beautiful electronic and glissando guitar piece from Harvey Bainbridge and Jerry Richards,” explain the band.
The band embarks on a major tour of the UK throughout October and early November 2016. Each show will feature a jaw-dropping digital projected lightshow, specially created by lighting designer and tour circuit veteran, Dave ‘Lighthouse’ Johnson.
