Bio
In the Spring of 2007 Joshua Hawksley moved to NYC from Kentucky to pursue his dream of being a singer/songwriter. Though unemployed, Hawksley survived by performing in NYC subway stations and open mic lounges.
Meanwhile New York City based drummer Ian Pierce and guitarist Stephen Sannicandro had teamed up. Pierce and Sannicandro were familiar with each other’s work from previous projects in the local scene. Essentially, it was a phone call placed by Pierce who was searching for a guitarist that spawned the collaboration.
By chance while in route to a local bar, Pierce discovered Hawksley performing in the 42nd street (Times Square) subway station. Pierce recognized the raw talent Hawksley displayed and introduced himself immediately.
Before long all three musicians were working collectively. Each member contributing their individual flavor, that together comprised the August Infinity sound.
The lineup was finally complete with the addition of bassist Chris Moss after the band saw him performing in a local guitar hero championship.
The August Infinity is currently finishing up their debut "Voices of a Generation" set for release Fall '09. Everything on the album was written, produced, recorded, and engineered solely by the band true DIY style in the confines of their nyc apartments.
