Fiona Joy Hawkins made her debut at number 1 on the New Age Reporter Top 100 Radio Charts November 2005 and was voted Best Piano Album in the NAR Lifestyle Music Awards 2006. Since then she has charted in the top 10 for all three albums with ICE - Piano Slightly Chilled having just been at 1 for Feb & March 2008. Also a Finalist in the MusicOz Awards 2006 and 2007, and a Finalist in the LA Music Awards in two categories in 2007.
Fiona Joy Hawkins' piano albums have been described as music to dream to. Featuring piano with orchestration, Portrait of a Waterfall calms the mind and yet allows its listener to become lost in the beauty of romantic melodies. Angel Above my Piano takes you to places you only dream of.
Fiona is currently recording her next project BLUE DREAM at Imaginary Road Studios with Grammy Award winner and Producer Will Ackerman (Founder of Windham Hill Records) and it is due for release September 200. Blue Dream features guest performances by Luka Bloom and Will Ackerman as well as some of the best instrumental artists in the world.
Recorded as a 70 minute single peice of music on a Steinway B, Blue Dream goes from quiet contemplative piano to full orchestral, to world sounds, rhythms, jazz influcneces and back again to the perfect "Bach' moment - all in a breath. (see the youtube clip of the recording of Blue Dream on this page).
You can listen to ICE - Piano Slightly Chilled (piano/chill/dance) on the Little Hartley Music myspace page (top friends below) - it is a sensual mix of piano and rhythm, with some vocal tracks. ICE covers chill, jazz, world and rock - with a tast of the unusual thrown into the mix.
Listen and purchase at fionajoyhawkins.com , where you can also view paintings. You will find Fiona's albums in most good record stores or on i-tunes.
All three albums plus merchandise including prints, T-Shirts, Cards and Sheet Music is available on my website.
