Hawklords (2000s band)

The germ of the Hawklords started at a concert on 28 September 2008 organised by Nik Turner as a tribute to Robert Calvert.

[1] A group of musicians formed a temporary band for the concert, consisting of Ron Tree, Danny Thompson, Nik Turner, Jerry Richards, Alan Davey, Harvey Bainbridge, Steve Swindells, Jim Hawkman, Judge Trev, Martin Griffin, and Adrian Shaw.

The line up for the tour was Ron Tree, Nik Turner, Jerry Richards, Adrian Shaw, Harvey Bainbridge, Steve Swindells and Meurig Griffiths.

[2] After the European tour a number of people left and the band restructured to record an album of original material.

The line up was Harvey Bainbridge, Dave Pearce, Jerry Richards, Adrian Shaw and Ron Tree.

The line up was again Harvey Bainbridge, Dave Pearce, Jerry Richards, Adrian Shaw and Ron Tree, and John Constable contributed additional lyrics for White Rag.

On 29 September 2023 they released a new album "Space" as a three piece - Purdon having left - and embarked on a UK tour.
