About Me

"Hirway's prose is peppered with imagistic bits of landscape, all grass and dust and summer sunsets. His compositions simply feel colossal." — Pitchfork

"Hirway's whispery vocals and lush arrangements are nocturnes for a new generation." — Spin

I started performing and recording my songs under the name The One AM Radio in March 1999. I have a mailing list that you can sign up for [here] . A discography, ordering information, and more mp3s are up on [theoneamradio.com] .

Use this email address: hrishikesh (AT) theoneamradio (DOT) com to put the one am radio in your top friends, or to send a message.
