Caleb Hawley CD release
with Daniel Ellsworth And The Great Lakes
This NYC and automobile-based singer-songwriter is creating quite a buzz across pop, jazz and folk circles with his last CD, Steps. Tonight, however, join in as The Cedar crowd gives Caleb a warm, hometown welcome as he releases a brand new album We All Got Problems.
A graduate of Berklee College of Music with a degree in Jazz Composition, Hawley has turned some heads with his choice to write and produce decidedly pop-influenced singer-songwriter music. But his success is undeniable with top awards like the John Lennon Songwriting Contest (’09) and the New York Songwriter’s Circle contest (’08, ‘09). Hawley is often compared to Stevie Wonder, James Taylor, and Raul Midon. He’s a charming, soft-spoken guitar virtuoso with a great big voice that can sing just about anything.
Opener Daniel Ellsworth is a high-grade piano and keyboard player who fuses the spirit of Elton John and Billy Preston with Ryan Adams caliber songwriting. His vocals are comfortably gritty with a modern blues and folk breathiness.
