Ronnie "The Hawk" Hawkins
Ronnie Hawkins is the undisputed granddaddy of Canadian rock 'n' roll. He is a larger-than-life storyteller. He is the best thing to happen to popular music and Canada -- so say his umpteen fans, some as renowned as Bob Dylan, Jerry Lee Lewis, Kris Kristofferson, and Jeff Healy, to name but a few. Ronnie has been playing music for more than 60 years and has influenced some of the most prominent and respected musicians in rock 'n' roll today. John Lennon christened Hawkins 'Sir Ronnie' and his proteges have included Robbie Robertson, Burton Cummings, Larry Gowan, Levon Helm and other members of The Band, Robbie Lane and the Disciples, and Janis Joplin's Full Tilt Boogie Band. Hawkins has revelled in every minute of his life of rock 'n' roll decadence. He has played for Bill Clinton, Lech Walesa, and every Canadian prime minister since John Diefenbaker. A former hot rod racer and sometime actor, Ronnie Hawkins is one of the funniest, most interesting, and striking figures in Canadian music today.
