Hamish Hawk shares new single, "Men Like Wire"
Edinburgh's Hamish Hawk has returned with "Men Like Wire" as the third preview of his forthcoming album, A Firmer Hand.
Speaking of the track, he said: "In "Bakerloo, Unbecoming", I wrote “essentially it comes down [again] to the limitless mysteries of other men”. "Men Like Wire" is a deeper excavation of that idea. In short, it’s about men. Men I have and haven’t known, men I’ve seen, heard, loved and lost. Men I’ve been seated next to at weddings, bus stops and dinner parties, on trains, beds and park benches. They’re all in there, for better, for worse."
Hawk's new album follows 2021's debut album, Heavy Elevator, and 2023's critically-acclaimed, Angel Numbers. “Writing this album, I opened up my closet, and a skeleton came out. The thing that links all of the songs is a sense of the unsaid, whether out of guilt, shame, repression, embarrassment, coyness, whatever it might have been.
A Firmer Hand is set for release on 16 August via So Recordings, and is available to pre-order.
