Dan Hawkins

Daniel Francis Rossi Hawkins is The Darkness’ Captain Fantastic. A truly great guitarist. A brilliant producer. A fearless leader.

The lady contingent love to watch Daniel writhe in a circular motion while his fingers explore the fretboard, as if the rosewood was a hitherto unchartered hectare of rainforest gateaux. When the guitar squeals involuntarily to his touches, there is seldom a dry seat in the house.

With a loaded 6 string on his back, he plays for keeps and shoots riff-laced bullets from the hip, directly into your heart.

Daniel and his family live inside a giant amp.
