Hawthonn is Leeds-based duo Layla Legard and Phil Legard. Having previously collaborated in music, as well as text and photography, they officially formed in 2014 to deepen their uniquely imaginative approach to music-making. Often developing from obsessive explorations of a particular theme, their work precipitates dreams and imaginative journeys, which inform the direction of their music. Their earliest music explored the afterlife mythos of Coil's Jhonn Balance through the image of the Hawthorn tree and Cumbrian landscape where his ashes were scattered.
Their debut album for Ba Da Bing, <a href="spotify:album:51LL9G10aNSiy4finTQ70m" data-name="Red Goddess (Of This Men Shall Know Nothing)">Red Goddess (Of This Men Shall Know Nothing)</a>, is dense and atmospheric, but not inaccessible. Experimental electronic techniques fuse with doom-laden organ riffs, crystalline piano, elemental drones and haunting vocals.
