About

Hawthorne is a Burlington-based 4-piece band consisting of 3 guys and 1 gal. Each musician can take on lead or harmony vocals, allowing us to perform a wide range of songs from the 70s to the 2020s. If you like it fun, engaging and personal, we can help make your event a success! We keep it respectful of the patrons and party-goers always!
We focus on adult pop, rock, some blues, Canadiana, and bring to you the greatest hits (and some lesser known gems) of artists like Adele, U2, Blue Rodeo, Fleetwood Mac, Alanis Morrisette, Mellencamp, The Beatles, Stones, Eagles and more! Heck, we even throw in some Dolly Parton, Blind Melon, Wallflowers, Supertramp, CCR and Taylor Swift! Now how's that for versatility and fun?! We can take requests in advance to make your event even more memorable. We hope to play for you soon, and to help make your event a hit!

Additional booking notes

We provide our own sound equipment. If playing outdoors, we will coordinate with you some overhead covering from poor weather or excessive sun, covering about 8x16 feet. Thank you.
