ABOUT HAWK NELSON...
This powerhouse foursome hailing from Canada has won the hearts of fans and media nationwide since their 2004 debut release "Letters to the President" with more than 600,000 lifetime sales and three studio projects later. Hawk Nelson has appeared on NBC's "American Dreams," had a cameo appearance in the hit Nickelodeon film "Yours, Mine, & Ours," where they played their original song "Bring Em Out," as well as had their songs featured on NBC's 2006 Stanley Cup promo spots, WB's Smallville, Summerland, & Laguna Beach. In 2008, "Hawk Nelson Is My Friend" debuted at #34 on the Billboard Top 200 selling more than 18k units. "Hawk Nelson Is My Friend" was also the top selling new release on the Christian album chart in addition to the comprehensive chart. The album also successfully debuted on the digital store iTunes with a No. 13 debut on the Top 100 albums chart on street day and remains on that chart one week later. Also the debut single "Friend Like That" sold 25,000 digital copies up to street week on iTunes. The album artwork also received GRAMMY and Dove nominations for "Best Packaging."
ABOUT LIVE LIFE LOUD...
The fun-filled sound that fans have come to know and love is perfectly evident on the debut single "Live Life Loud," a sis-boom-bah opening anthem well suited to the band's get-this-party-started attitude. The album,
Live Life Loud, strikes a wiser balance than ever between the group's two core strengths: kicking out amped up jams and bringing social and spiritual depth to them. This fourth studio project features a wide range of co-writing colleagues--tobyMac, Matthew Gerrard, and Trevor McNevan of Thousand Foot Krutch--also testifies to Hawk Nelson's true artistic versatility.
HAWK NELSON LOVES TOMS SHOES...
Hawk loves TOMS Shoes. TOMS Shoes provide shoes for children in poverty stricken areas with the motto "One for One." For the band's effort, every pair of shoes purchased via Hawk Nelson's website, TOMS donates a pair of shoes to someone in Haiti as the band's ongoing involvement with the Hands & Feet Orphanage. Coming this year will be a Hawk Nelson TOMS shoe designed by the band. Check out HawkNelson.com to find out how you can buy a pair today and change the life of a child tomorrow.
