Hathaways is a brother-sister duo from tiny Rossville, IL. Elder sibling Kate has been writing and performing since 2001, but after prodigiously-talented James revealed his ability to perfectly perform his sister's compositions, the two began to collaborate in earnest in 2006.
Since James had already developed into an accomplished guitar player, Kate was freed to incorporate another passion, the charango, into their instrumentation. Under the tutelage of mentor Tom Turino, Kate had learned to play this small, ten-stringed folk instrument of the Peruvian Andes while studying ethnomusicology at the University of Illinois. Between the unique and beautiful texture of the charango, James' skillful acoustic guitar work, and the interplay of rich male-female vocal harmonies, Hathaways have created a sound unlike any other act in modern folk or pop music.
While this unique sound is what first catches a listener's ear, the songwriting strength of Hathaways is what ultimately has audiences returning for more. Effectively balancing the honesty and immediacy of folk music with the straight-forward and hummable pleasure of pop music, the pair conjure an appealing sound that resonates with fans of quality, hand-crafted song.

I'm sad I missed your show in Chicago, it was a bad day of the week but it's my home base now so you have to come back! Your sounds are just too much sweeter live. -otto
i'll be there for a month and i'll be playing there and maybe a show in trujillo as well so i'm pretty excited. i've wanted to go to peru for like three years and my roommate in college is from arequipa and my label hooked me up with contacts for shows and stuff so it's all coming together. however though, chances are i might not go back or at least not for many many years for the sake of me wanting to visit the twenty or so destinations on my list before returning to any particular one, so if you're around you should come! it'd be nice to have you there.
Bueno, pasab por aca para dejar un afectuoso saludasooo. adelanteee y exitos¡¡ Chévere bro!! Saludos checkea nuestro myspace. Estamos promocionando nuestro primer disco¡¡
En este album encontraras temas que manifiestan el sentir cotidiano de la vida desde un punto de vista social, directo, g crudo literal y simle. Todo enmarcado dentro de un concepto impersonal.. (canciones como: “resistire” “total” “nunca mas” “destino””)Tamiben hay temas que utilizan la metáfora,el simbolismo y la cronica Para darle forma a canciones autoanaliticas y pequeñas historias. (canciones comoi “todo nada” “somos” “solitario mistico” “acerca de la inmigrante solitaria” ) Esta propuesta esta dotada de un acompañamiento sonoro con bastante power.Espramos que disfruten del disco.!!!
Hey Hathaways! We're doing another final benefit for the RFU tower. Saturday, May 16 outside at Mike n' Molly's. Short sets. Would love to have you involved. Please drop me a line to let me know if you're up for it by Friday. We'd love to have you on the lineup. Welcome back! -Aimee
Hey! How's it going? I don't know if you remember me (so I'm uploading a picture :D). I was the guy who talked to much before your concert at Delfus Bar and asked for an autograph.
Anyway, just wanted to wish you good luck recording your new album, I'm sure it'll bring a lot of surprises and amazing music to your fans. Take much care and feel free to visit anytime ;)
seriously guys i think i have bad luck, i couldn't hear you play more than just one song yesterday at Delfus Bar and it was the last show, i'm pretty sad... but you're really great so i wish you all the success! :)
Great concert last night. I love your interpretation of Love will tear us apart. Where did you go after the concert? I had to leave some friends to their houses so i couldn't catch up.
