Heaven's Gate

Description

Following their 2017 album "Six" and the 2018 hit album "Brave New World" Hawklords will release the third part of this trilogy of critically acclaimed albums, "Heaven's Gate" in October 2019. The first two albums in this sequence of releases deal with the themes of War and Peace, with "Heaven's Gate" closing the trilogy on the theme of Love. The album draws together many musical strands that have influenced the band members over the course of five decades including, folk, blues, poetry, rock and roll, pop and electronica, and is described by the group as "Powerful, thought-provoking meditations on, perhaps, the most endearing of human qualities: Love, itself." Heaven's Gate features: Harvey Bainbridge (Synths and FX), Dave Pearce (Drums), Jerry Richards (Guitars, Sound Design FX and Vocals), Tom Ashurst (Bass and Vocals) and Dead Fred (Synths, Keyboards and Vocals). For the live dates, founder member Nik Turner, plus former Inner City Unit, Krankschaft and Hawkwind member, Dead Fred, will be appearing with the band. A carefully chosen selection of classic songs and new material will be performed by the band on the Generations Tour 2019, which kicks off in October in celebration of 50 years of British space-rock.
