iDA HAWK

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Learned how to sing as a kid riding in the back of my mom's minivan. Tuned into Oldies 104.3, an iconic Chicago radio station of yesteryear, I loved to play a game by trying to blend in completely with each singer. Memorizing riffs of the 50s - 70s. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Start Again” This song is super stripped back. It highlights my voice alongside one single instrument - piano. It's reminiscent of song-writing from another time period, which is at the core of what I love best. Nostalgic melodies and feelings. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Collaborating on songs with my friend Big Wild and performing together across the country. My favorite venue to sing at is Red Rocks Amphitheater and my favorite festivals are Outside Lands Music Festival and Lollapalooza. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I am working on writing and recording my debut album. Honoring the truest form of my artistry and completing this album is my biggest goal and soul mission right now.
