Everybody's saying that Caleb’s the best thing that’s happened for music since…
Well, since ever!!! And Here’s the proof!!!
"Between his complex, yet very accessible sense of melody, and wacky sense of humor, Caleb Hawley has a completely unique musical perspective."
---Exterminating Angel
“Brilliant. That’s what this young man is. I’m proud to say that we’ve been friends since the third grade…”
---Nathan Mhyra (chief writer for Fargo’s Finest)
“… anything but cliché, Caleb’s songs will take the entire world to a new level. That is why I’m pretty sure that he’s an alien…”
--- Grommit Raspusin (writer for “Do Aliens Exist”)
“… the first time I saw him tears filled my eyes. That’s probably because I was in a lot of pain though.”
--- Vicki Hawley (writer for “Mag for Moms”)
“… his music is pretty good.”
--- Matt Neener (writer for “Cynical Mind” of Waco Nebraska)
“… I got a lucky chance to hear his new, not in stores yet, debut CD entitled “Greatest Hits”. I fell in love with it immediately. It is most indefinitely a must have.”
--- Caleb Hawley (writer for “My Magazine”)
A little about the man...
Caleb Hawley has always wanted to be a professional baseball player. However, life did not grant him big muscles and outstanding eye contact. Instead, he was dealt the gift of fast fingers and massive vocal chords. After sadly realizing his circumstances, he set off to be a musician.
At 12, he learned his first Nirvana song on guitar. Due to the overwhelming response from the seventh-grade girls, he decided to learn more. First Metallica, next Pink Floyd. Then Dave Mathews or whatever else made people like him. Soon Caleb was the youngest bar hopper in Minneapolis, performing for “old people” all over the city.
A few years later, college came. He decided to head out to Boston and attend Berklee College of Music. He received a degree in jazz composition and was sent off to make a living in music, or in other words, die. He had to move fast, before his college loans got the better of him, so he re-located to New York City and in July of 2007, released his debut CD, “Greatest Hits”.
Since then he (along with his dog Fargo) has traveled miles upon miles performing at clubs, colleges, and festivals all over the country. In journey, he has had the opportunity to share the stage with the most famous of stars, though sadly due to crazy laws, we are not allowed to drop their names here on Myspace. In November 2008, he was a top five finalist in the annual New York Songwriter’s showcase. Things are moving along, though he still hopes to be a baseball player someday.
it's really all a bunch of nonsense though ...isn't it?...these contests...how silly humans can be..."hmmm....let's judge art...even though we don't know what the true intention or moment of the creation was like for the artist"...
I know you were second to no one there...Best WisheZ & Happy Thanksgiving
Thank you for adding me. I really appreciate you joining me on my author page. I will have a few songs from the soundtrack on the player soon, but will link my music page for more songs. My fiction novel with a CD soundtrack is due out in a few weeks. It will be at CD Baby, Amazon, Barnes & Nobels etc. Keep in touch.
Wishing you a great musical week. Happy Thanksgiving.

I don't play music or sing or anything as wonderful as that. Sorry to disappoint. I do write reviews sometimes for Maverick music magazine though. I am just a lover of good music. I hope you are ok and have a good weekend. Sara

Caleb, it's rare that I get a friend request from someone who inspires me enough to immediately add him/her as a favorite. You're in my faves, dude, and you're a friend now. My web site, cloudrider51.com, may help to explain how I ride clouds.
