Philadelphia songwriter Mallory Hawk releases 'Chinook', a ten-track album written and performed around her guitar-led alternative-rock vision. Produced by Samuel Acchione and recorded mainly at Philadelphia’s Headroom Studios, the record includes layers of electric and acoustic guitar, organ, piano, percussion and occasional brass.
Songs such as 'Caretaker', 'Felicity', 'Rotten Man' and 'Rabbit Hole' move through loneliness, responsibility, resilience and the complicated comfort of other people’s company. The title refers to the military helicopters that formed part of Hawk’s childhood environment, turning a persistent mechanical memory into a symbol for the sounds that remain inside us long after their original context has disappeared. Most childhood noise becomes nostalgia. Helicopter rotors apparently require a full album.
