 LyricsVault: Hall of fame: Chesney Hawks
Encouraged by the equally dramatic success of the "BUDDY'S SONG" soundtrack album, CHESNEY HAWKES and his band (featuring his brother Jodie on drums) rounded off 1991 with a sell-out tour, playing everything from small clubs to 3,000 seaters the length and breadth of Europe.
Those who'd predicted that CHESNEY HAWKES would never manage it were the only ones who wound up disappointed as both fans and critics alike voted CHESNEY's live show a spectacular success, with special honours going to the now legendary last night show at London's Hammersmith Odeon.
CHESNEY had long out-grown the stifling confines of teen- idoldom and was eagerly looking forward to the challenge of establishing himself as a songwriter in his own right.

 Chesney Hawkes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chesney Hawkes (born Chesney Lee Hawkes, 22 September 1971, in Windsor, Berkshire) is an English pop singer, songwriter, and occasional actor.
Many felt this was due to the delay in release, as Hawkes had promoted the single a year earlier in Spring 2001 with a string of live appearances across the UK in nightclubs, and short acoustic sets in universities and colleges.
Hawkes has also had some success as a songwriter for other artists, such as A1, Caprice and Tricky.

September 22nd 1971 was a wonderful day, for it was then that, in Windsor, Berkshire, England, Chesney Hawkes was born to Carol and Len "Chip" Hawkes (the singer of The Tremeloes).
Chesney concluded 1991 with a sell-out European tour, playing his own club shows and supporting Huey Lewis and The News in arenas.
This finished at London's Hammersmith Odeon, and signified the end of this particular stage of his career: having achieved teen idol status, Chesney was ready to establish himself as a song writer in his own right, a point he laboured by releasing the single 'I'm a man not a boy'.

Ermutigt durch den Erfolg des Soundtrack Albums „BUDDY’S SONG“ beendete CHESNEY HAWKES und seine Band (mit seinem Bruder Jodie am Schlagzeug als Attraktion) das Jahr 1991 mit einer ausverkauften Tournee, in der er in kleinsten Clubs bis zu Hallen mit über 3000 Sitzplätzen in ganz Europa erfolgreich spielte.
Nachdem er sich noch mehr Live Erfahrung als Support Artist mit Huey Lewis in Deutschland und Bryan Adams in Wien und Budapest erspielte, zog sich CHESNEY HAWKES vor der Öffentlichkeit zurück und konzentrierte sich darauf, mehr Zeit in seinem Studio zu verbringen um die Titel für sein neuestes Album zu schreiben und einzuüben.
Die harte Arbeit hat sich gelohnt, CHESNEY HAWKES „GET THE PICTURE“ ist so geistreich, abwechslungsreich und kompromisslos wie kein anderes in letzter Zeit produziertes Album.
