Tristan Hawk is a 25 year-old singer-songwriter from Poitiers (France) and based in Niort for 10 years, Tristan Hawk introduces you to his Pop Folk Universe.

​

Tristan began his musical passion with the Ukulele at the age of 8, followed by folk guitar, electric guitar, and then began composing with both at the same time.

Filled with depth in both lyrics and chords, Tristan created The Spacer in 2014 with the release of his first Ep entitled "My Universe".

​

 

Tristan is a French singer of rare sensitivity, the outlet of songwriting makes him someone who knows how to convey his passion for music, through his drive and energy on stage.

​

From his first Ep to the present day, Tristan has played over forty shows, most of them in the Deux-Sèvres department, around Niort (France), for his debut in bars and restaurants, such as L' Agape and L' Alternateur, but also for the World music days in Frontenay Rohan, Aiffres and  Les Halles de Niort for the "mardis de l'apéro" a well known event in Niort.

​

In 2017, Tristan was able to play at a french festival called 'Le Nouveau Festival', open to secondary school students living in France and held in the Nouvelle Aquitaine region. He was able to perform a number of original compositions as well as covers of world-famous artists on the first day organised in Poitiers, and was selected for the final of the festival, at Le Rocher Palmer in Bordeaux. In 2021, he played at a well-known Niort venue, L'îlot Sauvage, in a chilled-out, relaxed atmosphere.

​

It wasn't until 2023 that he decided to launch a full-time career in music, with about fifteen shows in the Nouvelle Aquitaine region ( Frontenay Rohan, Marché d'Arçais and Saint-Hilaire-La-Palud, Les Brasseurs cueilleurs in Landrais, Marché de Laleu in La Rochelle, La Bulle in Niort ), the preparation of a single released on 28 October 2023 and an album released on January 28th, 2024.

​

Since the start of 2024, Tristan has had the opportunity to appear on several local radio stations, including NRJ Niort, Radio Pigouille, France Bleu Poitou and Radio Gâtine, to present his album. Since January, he has played around thirty shows in the Nouvelle Aquitaine region and in the Vendée; at the Teurtous bar in Arçais, Max Musique in Niort, L'Envers du Bocal in Poitiers, V and B in Poitiers Biard and Cholet, The Concert hall / Open-air dance hall La Gapette in Les Épesses, Café Le Français in Surgères and the popular restaurant Baci in Niort. These events allowed him to continue sharing his universe and promoting his album. 
 
Last March, he was selected for the musical springboard of the olympic flame, held at the Émeraude Boc'hall music hall in Bressuire, and finished 2nd in the 16-25 age category. He also had the opportunity to open for the American soul band “The Sextones” at Le Camji music venue in Niort on July 4.
