Canadian indie rock quartet Ladyhawk specializes in emotionally charged guitar rock reminiscent of the Replacements, Dinosaur Jr., and Neil Young & Crazy Horse. Formed outside of Vancouver, British Columbia, the band consists of vocalists/guitarists Duffy Driediger and Darcy Hancock, bassist/vocalist Sean Hawryluk, and drummer/vocalist Ryan Peters. Their eponymous debut, released on Jagjaguwar Records, arrived in June 2006, followed by Shots in 2008. ~ James Christopher Monger
