ABOUT HAWTHORNE

"Miles ahead of many twice her age, it’s time to take notice of this rising singer-songwriter." 

- Kendra Beltran freelance writer and author @ZO Magazine

​

On a mission to help others through music during these absurd times with her compassionate and thoughtful approach, Hawthorne Oachs writes about issues that affect teens (and many adults) in staggering numbers. Topics like depression, anxiety, loneliness, past trauma haunts, toxic friendships, perfectionism, self-acceptance and more are covered in her catalog. She also writes about crushes, love, and self-compassion. Hawthorne releases these songs in hopes that it will create more awareness and spark healthy conversation around mental health, while ultimately helping others feel less alone. 

Through her music, Hawthorne offers a community where mental health, psychological safety and connection are at the forefront. She does this by channeling her empathy and compassion while creating a sense of belonging and mattering. Hawthorne's music is a safe place for anyone who feels out of space and time, lost in the darkness, or is simply in search of solidarity - and she does it all while defying the notion that "kids should be seen and not heard."

"Don’t let her age fool you. Hawthorne Oachs will break your heart with the one play of her song. Her newest track is rife with fragile emotion, turning a nice folk-pop song into a tremulous lament. She crafts an earthy, dense and ethereal track that will have you re-aligning how you listen to music. It hits you in waves, rather than as a whole." - mspmag.com
