Hawthorn, created by Heather Scott and Taylor Holland, “digs into its folk roots while also reminding us that tradition is about tending to the flame, not the ashes” (NPR). The Boston-based group is quickly gaining national recognition for its powerful vocals surrounded in old-time banjo, warm guitar, and dreamy electric lines: “When they harmonize, the edges of their voices bleed together like watercolors on paper” (WBUR). Hawthorn is currently nominated for the 2019 Boston Music Awards. Notable appearances include The Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, Bust Out Boston, and the International Herbal Symposium. Hawthorn’s newest LP, Maggie Willow, is available everywhere.
