A Hawk and A Hacksaw is a musical project led by Jeremy Barnes, former drummer for Neutral Milk Hotel. Based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Barnes creates a playfully gothic atmosphere with his multi-layered, frantic compositions. Mixing field recordings with accordion, piano and bursts of drunken choruses, he generates a singular and unnerving orchestral whole.

Influenced by everything from Eastern European folk music to Pierre Schaeffer to Spike Jones & His City Slickers, A Hawk and A Hacksaw's music defies boundaries. Their songs can take unexpected directions based on the sound of a dog's bark or a phone ringing. Cacophony and sweet hymn-like harmonies coexist in entertainingly unpredictable passages.

Newest Listed Items

'delivrance' is a hawk and a hacksaw's fourth album and first full length since 2006's cult classic 'the way the wind blows'. this is by far the most vivid, intense and confident work by a hawk and a hacksaw to date. 'delivrance' was recorded in budapest, devon and albuquerque in the second half of 2008 around the core of the hun hangar ensemble, who originally teamed up with jeremy barnes and heather trost for the limited edition cd / dvd in 2007 (now something of a collector's item). the recordings feature some incredible musicians, such as kalman balogh, one of the very best cimbalom players in the world, and brings together music from eastern europe, israel and turkey, as well as north america.
