Hank Decken

1999
"Life Around the Edges" is the the first of Hank's solo efforts in the Rock / Americana / Blues genre. In music, true evolution always seems to bring you back to your roots and what got you started making music in the first place. This record is the first soulful cleansing pallet of mood and music where each song can simply stand on its own.

2002
This second solo release "Another Seven Days" finds Hank surrounded by friends and family in The Hardline: Mark Edgerly, Geoff Safford, Travis Barton, and Scott Shuster. Guest performances with thanks always, to Jonathan Mover, Rob Gourlay, Jody Gourlay, Andy Happel, Sean Daniels and Wayne Brewer.
His prolific double CD efforts combine reflections of the past with the philosophy and sometimes sardonic perspective of lessons learned.

2014
Hank's latest offering "Fading Forward" is edgier than his previous two releases. The lyrics paint a picture of solitary paths that intersect with others in the unremitting ebb and flow of life.
This gallery of work is a compilation of lives and relationships, some ending too soon and others too late. In the stark reality of changes that exist along the way, the hard work comes when life begins to falter. In order to persevere, resurgence is achieved by fading forward.

With Hank providing the vocal and guitar work, members of The Hardline include: Geoff Safford - Rhythm Guitar, Mark Olson - Bass Guitar, Travis Barton - Drums and Scott Shuster - Keyboards
