Hawksley was accompanied by his piano player Mr Lonely, and the two of them were a hell of a sight.
During the latter song, Hawksley actually performed a real striptease to change his weird suit for an army uniform, and between the two sets of dresses, he was only wearing his underpants, which had the women in the crowd go raving mad.

But word of mouth lifted Workman's profile after he supported compatriot Serena Ryder on tour last year, so that UMA is now claiming first dibs on his latest disc, Treeful of Starling.
Workman's vivid imagination has brought him just as much attention as his musical ability, which includes playing guitar, drums and piano.

 CMT.com : Hawksley Workman : Biography
Self-styled by Workman, it seemed to be a partially invented, quasi-fictional account of his first 24 years and created quite a buzz and a fair amount of conjecture, scuttlebutt, and intrigue from media and fans even before his music had a chance to become celebrated or widely known.
Even if few of the facts of his life-story are entirely on the level, it bespeaks a man of deeply felt impulses and a broad imagination, someone willing to make art even out of his own life and with a sense of humor to boot.
In addition, Workman played on and produced albums for fellow Canadian artists John Southworth, Sarah Slean, Tegan and Sara, the Cash Brothers, and Paul Macleod.

 Amazon.com: For Him and the Girls: Music: Hawksley Workman   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
The lilting waltz lullaby of "Safe and Sound", the heady calliope of "Paper Shoes" that bleeds into a classic Bowie-esque chorus, and the yearning, vulnerable broken-voice declaration of "Baby This Night" could not be more different from each other, but they fit gorgeously in a progression and are equally evocative.
i have since been a hardcore hawksley fan, and while all his albums are fantastic, 'for him and the girls' remains my favourite.
Hawksley Workman deserves a much wider public awareness, but - as long as it means I can enjoy his gigs at intimate venues like the one I attended last night - there are some advantages.

 Hawksley Workman: (Last Night We Were) The Delicious Wolves: Pitchfork Record Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
He's wounded and wailing, but then he abruptly takes command; he quivers vulnerably, his voice warbling as his heart deflates, and then he roars his demands, like a lioness that follows orders without hiding her claws.
Hawksley Workman assaults his songs with butch sexual charge, the camp and flamboyance of a junior league pop diva-- so much that, well, not to question anyone's identity, but he's gotta be, you know, British.
Workman recorded this album almost entirely by himself at home: that's him hammering out the tight piano part on "Jealous of Your Cigarette", or working the guitar like he's humping a pole.

 CanEHdian.com: Hawksley Workman
Hawksley Workman - Hallelujah - has just released a record of entirely new work, which definitely addresses many of the warm-fuzzy things about the holiday season ('...three generations in the kitchen all at once...'), and also some of the funnier, more oft-overlooked features of the Christmas season, as a Canadian twentysomething.
All of these topics, most poignantly the last, are penetrated on Hawksley's new release, which makes this a very different Christmas album.
This album is a fresh, new, lovely, wonderfully performed album about the winter of all our discontents, and finding solace in all the simple things - smells of wine and clementine, home, love, silliness, and predicting (planning to simply enjoy) the leftover turkey sandwiches.

That Hawksley is a self-proclaimed hopeless romantic is on display everywhere.
I believe with all I have left for a heart that this is Hawksleys Sea Change (Beck) and possibly even his Pet Sounds.
While there is not one real dance floor tune like Striptease, Im beginning to suspect that was a one off anyway, the presence of any obvious singles as such would only detract from the poetic quality and sensitive fragility of this moving piece.

 Popjournalism | Reviews | 2006 | Hawksley Workman, Treeful of Starling
When fans heard early accounts that Hawksley Workman's fifth effort was going to sound like his quirky debut For Him and the Girls, many fans began to rejoice.
Starling is very much unlike his debut and subsequent releases, which had radio rock tracks stuck between slower, quieter pop songs.
Without a radio hit on Starling, Workman thrives on the idea of artistic honesty and he manages to create some of his most simple yet earnest songs of his career.
