The Nighthawk

Around the past due ’90s a percussionist using the stage name from the Nighthawk started performing and documenting in the Austin, TX, area with jam rings such as for example Velvet Hammer and Loke E. Coyote, pursuing in the happy custom of performers such as for example John the Conga Guy who shroud their devotion towards the most obnoxious of percussion devices having a cloak of minor anonymity. In the Nighthawk’s case it’s the feared djembe and a desire never to know the true name from the man banging onto it. This designer shouldn’t be confused using the ’70s jazz disk jockey who published liner records, the blues music group, the rap group, or the present day jazz duo called Nighthawks.
