Singer/songwriter Dave Hawkins has long-standing connections to the local music scene:  his father owned CFOS radio, Dave started what is now Randy’s Records, and he owned and operated the Fromager Music Store.  As for his music, Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull had these glowing words to say about him: “Dave is a rare find in this world of hyped, derivative and bottom line-driven music. … he has broadened his work to include many influences from the best of rich musical forms usually found elsewhere in the world."
