Ron Hawkins @ ROCKSCHOOL

Information on Ron Hawkins:
Ron Hawkins is a Canadian musician who rose to stardom in the 90's as the frontman for The Lowest of the Low. The band's debut album, Shakespeare My Butt, went on to become one of the best selling indie albums in Canadian music history. Moreover, it was named one of the top 10 Canadian albums of all time by Chart magazine. Ron Hawkins is formidable songwriter; "fans and fellow musicians alike maintain a respect for him that borders on reverence." He is not Rockin' Ronnie Hawkins, an unfortunate mix up that happens all too often. After the Lowest of the Low broke up, Ron went on to form the group The Rusty Nails.  In 1995, Ron Hawkins released his first solo effort entitled The Secret of My Excess. Ron is fresh off a national tour of Canada on which he performed with British rock legend Billy Bragg.  On the tour Ron played many songs from his 2009 release, 10 Kinds of Lonely. March, 2010 marks his first tour of Asia.
