Claire Hawkins

Folk // New York, Dublin // she/her

Claire Hawkins brings new life to the term “troubadour” as a traveling singer/songwriter. Her rapidly growing global YouTube following of over 13,500 subscribers continues to increase daily. In her music-focused travel vlogs set to her own original folk-pop songs, Hawkins brings her viewers along for an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at what it’s like to travel the world as an independent musician. Her recent trips have brought her across Europe, North America, Northern Africa, and Southeast Asia, and led to partnerships with a variety of music and travel brands, including the guitar company Journey Instruments and the online language school Lingoda.

Hawkins first launched her international music career with an independently organized European tour. The Foreign Voices Travelers Tour supported the release of her EP ‘Foreign Voice’ and took place in youth hostels, channeling the special moments of connection that these travel spaces offer. She performed 18 shows in 14 cities across 8 countries, and documented her adventures on YouTube, www.youtube.com/user/ImClaireHawkins.

Hawkins is now preparing to spend a month in Southern France as part of the 2022 Odyssée Artist in Residence Program. She was selected for this funded residency by the Association des Centres Culturels de Rencontre and the French Ministry of Culture. For this residency Hawkins will be based in Canet-en-Roussillon while she works on an original songwriting project centered around the theme of intercultural connection.

When she’s not traveling the world, Hawkins splits her time between Dublin and New York City. She is currently preparing to release her third EP, due out later this year.
