Mayer Hawthorne

May 12, 2011, 9:53am Side One: Track One

Thursday, May 12, 2011 Today's Quick Mention: Tonight I recommend that you head down to the Parish and see my friends Sorne and the Long Tangles. Both acts have really early sets since they're opening the show, so be sure to not dwell or you'll miss out on some good stuff. Tix are $5. Since I wouldn't call myself a fan (or even a slight admirer, to be honest), Mayer Hawthorne is not a name normally seen around these parts. [...]

Tonight in Music: Mayer Hawthorne, Glass Candy, Sublime with Rome, and more

Nov 9, 2010, 12:45pm End Hits

MAYER HAWTHORNE AND THE COUNTY, GORDON VOIDWELL ( Aladdin Theater , 3017 SE Milwaukie) Like Raphael Saadiq (but Caucasian), Mayer Hawthorne makes an utterly convincing case for the legitimacy and primacy of devout soul revivalism-while wearing a tie, to boot. When you can sing like Saadiq or Hawthorne-all buttery croon and beautiful yearning-why not rekindle those Motown and Stax flames? Hawthorne is the Ann Arbor, Michigan, singer/songwriter who won over the discerning ears of Stones Throw Records' Peanut Butter Wolf, and the strange arrangement has proved fruitful for both parties.

FIVE KID TESTED, MOTHER APPROVED ARTISTS

Sep 10, 2010, 3:10am the WILD honey pie

My mom is as sweet as they come. She was never a music buff, but tells me stories of the famous people she dated before she met my dad (weird). One of these men, as she tells me, was the manager of the Jackson 5 , and brought the crew to her work at the jockey club in Miami. She played tennis with Tito, Jackie, and Jermaine, had Janet sit on her lap, but barely spoke with Michael as he was reading his bible the entire day. My mother's pretty easy-going, and her [...]

Mayer Hawthorne tour dates (SXSW, NYC, Coachella & more)

Jan 21, 2010, 2:57pm BrooklynVegan

Mayer Hawthorne @ Brooklyn Bowl in October ( more by Tim Griffin ) The "retro" tag is added to almost any contemporary work that sounds like it was originally recorded between 1966 and 1974, and Mayer Hawthorne, among the newest contributors to the genre, is aware of how trends come and go. After being introduced to Stones Throw label head Peanut Butter Wolf by mutual friend Noelle Scaggs of the Rebirth, even his current boss was skeptical. "He showed me two songs and I didn't understand what I was listening to," Wolf recalls. "I asked [...]

Mayer Hawthorne: A Strange Arrangement (Reviews)

Nov 4, 2009, 1:00am PopMatters

It's that classic biblical tale: little known DJ from suburban Michigan takes on soul god from Motown. And the winner is... In 2007, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings nabbed it in a hard fought battle. Last year, Raphael Saadiq easily triumphed. And now, ladies and germs, I'm pleased to announce that this year's award for album that sounds most like '60s-era Smokey Robinson goes to a relatively unlikely source: one Mayer Hawthorne, a suburban Michigan DJ whose debut release, A Strange Arrangement, so closely resembles Robinson's early work that it could be easily mistaken for a...

Justin Timberlake: ascoltate Mayer Hawthorne

Oct 22, 2009, 1:25pm soundsblog

Questa è una storia strana. Vedete il tizio nella foto? Direste mai che è l'autore di quello che è probabilmente il migliore esordio soul dell'anno? Forse no. Le apparenze -spesso- ingannano. Direste mai che questo tizio stralunatissimo e con l'aria da nerd è uno degli ascolti preferiti di gente come Q-tip , Gilles Peterson e viene consigliato da Justin Timberlake sul suo sito? Le apparenze ingannano proprio. Ancora più assurdo se pensiamo che Mayer Hawthorne ha registrato tutto nella sua stanza di Los Angeles, con un quattro piste, strumentazione vintage e [...]

Mayer Hawthorne "Green Eyed Love"

Sep 21, 2009, 12:22am Mixtape Maestro

To say the world needs another vintage R&B mimic would be like admitting that VH1 needs another ludicrous reality-TV dating show, but Mayer Hawthorne , the porn-ily monikered alter-ego of Michigan-born hip hop DJ Andrew " Haircut " Cohen, definitely deserves to take up space in your iPod library, if only so you could freak out your friends and parents with the endlessly wowing re-imagining of '60's and '70's-era R&B/ soul that takes place on his debut project, A Strange Arrangement . Bearing a spot-on handling of the falsetto croon, groovy soul-bop, [...]

Sep 20, 2009, 2:48pm Indie Music Filter

Here's to getting through those busy times, as since Tiff finished (on friday for me), my schedule has opened up quite a bit. I'm still really behind on work, but I'm getting this sense that I can catch up. Today, I went through my inbox, and guess what? Some amazing songs in there as well as some pretty bad ones, the latter which I won't be passing along. I'm currently sitting in what I've been calling the 'reading nook' in my Arild (ikea name), the computer rested on the bottom side of my underused snowboard, stretching from sofa [...]

New artist: Mayor Hawthorne

Sep 13, 2009, 2:55pm Musick

True story: when we were young and were first exposed to 'Mmmbop' by Hanson we were pretty sure it was a rather large black woman doing the singing. Just imagine our surprise when we found out it was actually three little blonde kids with scraggly hair and ruddy cheeks. Something similar happens when you listen to Mayer Hawthorne , who describes his sound as Otis Redding meets J Dilla and looks like this: This is his recently released, limited edition single [...]

Mayer Hawthorne - Just Ain't Gonna Work Out (Official Video)

Sep 10, 2009, 10:03am Filthy Speaker Addict

I love when knowledgable folks put me on to good soul music... A few months back, I crashed at my friend Peter Rosenberg's place in Manhattan. It's one of the most chill living environments I've been around (ahhh, memories of the Real World House in Hyattsville). There's always the chance to learn of new music from Peter and one of his roomies, Mark Ballard, a 30-something white Marketing/PR manager. On this particular night, upon returning from an event, Ballard and I talked the night away about my newest studies... Blues music. I told Ballard that I [...]

Mayer Hawthorne

Aug 24, 2009, 1:13am dipped in dollars

Some wondrous person played me some of Mayer Hawthorne 's music earlier this summer, but it wasn't until recently that I could put a name to the sound. Meet the man of my dreams. In his 20s (for a little while anyway), and bringing back soul in a way so real it's as if it was never gone. The late sixties/ early seventies are my dream decade, the clothes, the music the cars, ahh. I always wish that more people were still making music like this, and heart-shaped red vinyl? Positively phenomenal. Full-length comes out [...]

Mayer Hawthorne has a "One Track Mind"

Aug 11, 2009, 5:00am My Chemical Toilet

This site's esteemed illustrator, Mr Phil Martin , has been touting Mayer Hawthorne for many months now. While I thought "Just Ain't Gonna Work Out", the first track to emerge from his forthcoming album A Strange Arrangement , had pleasingly meaty, vintage soul-inspired production, the track didn't do a whole lot for me. I think the video adds a certain something though, partly due to the shock that the guy producing the sounds - and apparently he's a one-man operation - is a geeky white guy. A geeky white guy you're going to be [...]
