Richard Hawley is doing it once more with real feeling
RICHARD HAWLEY has no regrets. “Maybe heroin,” chuckles the Sheffield singer, voice heavy with flu. “Perhaps that is a bit of a thing to regret.”
Hawley is referring to brief period, many years ago, when he embraced the life of a hard-charging rock star. It did not agree and today he is far happier as a suburban dad who just happens to sing deeply moving blues songs for a living. He’d take an afternoon pottering around the garden over a champagne-splashed pool party any day.
