UNDOUBTEDLY!!!!!!
The greatest musician this country has produced in the last 30 years. Saw him in Brighton last Sunday. Outstanding absolutely brilliant.
Ex gf got me into Richard . She'd always play his music when i was at her place . One of the few times ive bought everything available by an artist all in one go on itunes in lieu of buying everything again on cd . We went to see him play at Whitley Bay Playhouse ( Standing at Skys Edge tour ) where he played a great version of The Ocean in a nod to the fact the Playhouse was a stones throw from the north sea . My gf was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer a short while afterwards and succumbed 5 years later . It took me two years to even be able to listen to music after that and awhile longer before i could listen to Richards again but i can now and she would still be listening now if she'd made it through . To all the times the music pulled us through - thank you Mr Hawley

Listen to his music to remind you of her, the special interment moments you shared together in secret.

That's brought tears to my eyes and it took some raw guts to share it. Thank you. 'Heart of Oak' is mine and my missus' song, and you've given that some extra bite.

I'm glad you can listen to the music. Somewhere, I'm sure she was listening too. 6 years into my own cancer journey I know how hard it is on those who love us. Listen to music and remember those times of joy and love together.
Tuning his guitar, finishes and says “near enough….it’s a pub” 😂😂😂 Gotta love the dude❤
I cannot stop listening to this gig. Outstanding absolutely great. So sad it is interrupted all the time by commercials, takes the flow out.... Is it not possible to get a copy of this gig on CD/DVD ? These acoustic versions of the songs are incredible and Richard's voice is stunning. Anybody sharing my opinion ?
Setlist ! 0:40 Just Like The Rain 04:20 Baby You're My Light lyrics 08:35 The Long Black Veil (Don Williams) 11:45 Tonight the Streets Are Ours 16:05 The Sea Calls 22:35 Roving Gambler 27:20 I'm on Nights 31:25 My Little Treasures 35:40 For Your Lover Give Some Time 40:50 Heart of Oak 45:30 As the Dawn Breaks
Bloody Hell, this doesn't happen in my local. There again, it helps living in Sheffield. You are one in a million, Richard.
This Man’s Voice,soothes a worried Mind and Heals a Sad Soul 😢❤❤❤
Was in some whine bar dandy bar int Piece Hall over yonder in Halifax last weekend. I’m not from round them parts, but me mate Chris is (well now he is) and the bloke from the bar put Now Then ont record deck. They sell records there too as well as booze so three drinks in I bought the Album. Got caught int moment I guess. Anyway I get back to Bolton the next day (felt like a pig had shat in my head) and noticed that the bloke who’s album I’d bought had also done an album live int Piece Hall…….so I bought that too. Been a steep learning curve, but I’m getting there 6 days in listening to someone I’ve never listened to before. Oh I also bought Mazzy Star for my Mum on vinyl. She’s 83 next week.
It really wouldn’t matter if there was no accompaniment whatsoever - that voice is just something else. And then, those songs. Richard Hawley is a complete and utter genius.
What a wonderful, intimate performance by one of the best musicians out there. You Brits have a real treasure in Richard. If only more Yanks like me knew of him ... they don't know what they're missing. He's a gem.
WOW......Thanks Richard. Just a perfect performance. Incredible. Sheffield's Johnny Cash.

This guy really knows what he's doing. If only we could convince him to come back to New York.

49 minutes of perfection. Richard you make my world a better place ❤️❤️❤️

Is Give Your Lover Some Time The Most Beautiful Poetic Song Ever
“Nar then Richard Hawley and friends I just wanted to say I love the new album. Thank you for writing it lovely lad. You are still expressing your thoughts, feelings and emotions in your work and for this I applaud because I believe it is sincerely important for all to express how you are feeling. Your work resonates with me deeply and my own life and being a Sheffield lass myself I know how proud we are when it comes to hiding one’s own thoughts. So it’s lovely to sit and listen to your words. Thank you Mister H 😘💙
I LOVE you, Richard Hawley...from the first moment I heard "Roll River Roll," all those years ago. Still a total wowza, you are! 🥰 xoxo P
This should be included as a deluxe version of the Now Then album
Vastly under-rated.....or should I say, unrecognised. Richard is superb.
Mr. Richard, you came to my life while a random dude told me that my girl is cheating me with him. He plays ¨The Ocean¨ and we drank a couple of beers. It was a very sad moment but at the time it was a very good moment. Now im single and i´ve got your music with me since that day.
Utterly outstanding
True Yorkshire Gent! Proud to know we have such a talented lad in our county.
That version of Heart of oak ❤
There are no words to describe just how incredible this performance is. Simply outstanding. Thank you Mr Hawley.
48 and a bit minutes of pure heaven. One of the most talented singer/songwriter's ever to draw breath.Thank you Richard, you are a star.
Love Richard. Props to the other guitarist as well though. Impeccable.
'The Streets Are Ours' is absolutely gorgeous. What blissful sonic perfection!
Absolute class Richard is a legend 👍👍👍
Playing to a dozen people in an intimate pub. This guy should be packing out stadiums! A real talent! I’ve been listening for years. I enjoyed every minute of this. The 12 string really filled the room! Cheers. Please tour Australia.
Oh that voice ❤ loved the performance, thank you!
Richard Hawley, an artist like no other. No one could or should try to replicate him. Simply exquisite ❤
Seen him play a half dozen times……can’t get enough of his music. No one can go from absolute crooner to rock God like Richard Hawley can❤ Thanks for sharing this intimate gig.
I love The Grapes, great Sheffield pub. Lots of happy memories. Great place to play Richard!!! 'Beautiful' guitar work and of course your gorgeous song writing and voice.
That was an excellent performance, what a treat!
Well if I can't see Richard live in Western Australia this is the next best thing - awesome.
Could you please release this on a CD, it is sooooo good to listen to these acoustic versions
Magnificent - I’ve seen Richard live on a number of occasions, always a great experience. What a singer!
I would buy him a pint. Or even two. Well Done, watching from Naples.
Incredible live artist, I had the pleasure of a few of Richard Hawley gigs the most memorable so far being the devil's arse castleton, and buying a copy of the live cd getting it signed after the gig by the man himself, the new vinyl is my shopping list this weekend, thanks for your awesome music Richard Hawley.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Richard your Lyrics are beautiful poems. The music you set them to is enchanting. Love your work.
Fantastic session both my wife and I loved it !!! Thank you Richard I would buy you a full pint 🤣
Listening to Richard Hawley is pure joy, it's balm for the soul. Love, love, love the new album, have listened non stop this past week ❤
SIMPLE BUT PERFECT ❤.
Some people idolise Brando and Dean. Usually the sort of people that are the opposite of the angry confused young men they were. When they do meet such young men, they are usually repelled by the reality of the messy all too human expressions of pain and chaos that result. I wonder if Richard is the sort to understand the foundations of such anguish, or if he would settle on the bottom with the ones that curse such young men for their despair. Be interesting to know whether this everyman persona translates into the genuine article, or if it's just an artfully crafted pose. Whether he is the draught or the beaker? But Heart of Oak is magnificent.
Es gibt sie noch. Musik, tief aus dem Herzen, so rein und klar wie ein Hochgebirgsbach. DANKE, Richard Hawley!
Unfortunately wasn't able to watch live but, wow, what a musician. One of the absolute best.
Fantastic accoustic concert. It packs an emotional wallop. Lucky pub patrons that day!
Just tuning in per chance here in Sligo, NW Ireland with my sweetheart Lorna. Your music is special to us both. Thanks for the sumptuous tunes 😊
Beautiful thoughtful uplifting music, this was just so lovely. The poetry in the songs. And that beautiful voice that soothes any troubled thoughts, a very special artist
Top bloke,top singer
I watched it live now I can rewatch. Marvellous!! Thank you to Richard and everyone involved in making it happen.
after 40 years of listen a liric, melodic an intelligent british pop I say - Richard's music style and songs is a rudimental and perfect explanation of heavenly mystery - without hipe, without hysteria of music industry and media this Gentlemen and his Associates is " too high" for this absurdity

Phenomenal!
Superb Mr Hawley, thanks for keeping it real, what a treasure! the next round is on me !😂😍🎉👏🏻
So fantastic as ever. Enjoy from Spain, feeling like i'm home
Fantastic! Best thing to happen in 2023! Thank you!
Richard is the best, more proof if anymore were needed
What a fantastic artist I've had the pleasure to recently discover. A voice with a bit of gravitas, a sense of longing, hope and peace all rolled into the songs. So, Mr. Hawley thanks for this tiny concert. A new fan from Portland, Oregon.
I hope those guys know how lucky they were I wish I was there. Love Mr H
That was great. "I'm on nights" was sooooo beautiful and touching. Your music is one of my little treasures. Thank you so much! ♥💖♥

Wow, what a treat!! Your voice and music are so beautiful! Will you ever tour in the U.S.? You have lots of fans here. Thanks so much for this beautiful performance. 💕 😀
Another brilliant performance by Richard and Shez, saw them at the Barbican but to be at The Grapes is another level. Lucky, lucky people of Sheffield.❤
Wonderful. Just the best. Love that mellow voice. Such a talented guy.
Richard is just great
My goodness, there is nothing better than live sessions especially when you can sing like Mr Hawley ❤❤❤❤❤
Richard & Shez's sound is beautifully warm & mellow. And the songs! Tops! Anyone know the make of guitar Richard is playing?
Incredible. So many brilliant tracks, so much pathos, so good. My first time hearing Long Black Veil by Mr H. Just gorgeous. I’m On Nights really resonates with me having had parents who worked nights for many years to provide for their family. Lovely stuff
Well, that’s the best lunch break I’ve had in years…. Thanks Richard…
Thank you, you have the same baritone voice as Scott Walker,,, love you to bits!! xxxx
Dr Hawley top man as always but even my dose of covid has now taken turn for the better many thanks much appreciated & good luck
Fabulous .love your singing.
Wonderful, as ever.
So , so lucky to have been there !! Thankyou so much - after a difficult year this was just what we needed ❤️❤️ xx
I´m enchanted by his music 🙂
Incredible show at Matlock Baths this summer.
Some of his songs make me think of Pete Astor. The two share a knack for songs of gently yearning and telling lyric details.
Feeling poorly and Richard you have really lifted me. What an amazing performer ❤
Such a great body of work and legacy. Stunning performance chaps 👌🙏🙌
Brilliant Rich👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Always a joy to hear your voice and your perfect songs.
Would have loved to have been there.
Seen him in Dublin's Olympia Hes an Amazing man and Singer Richard is a credit to our music Buy his records keep him going a man of so much love and talent god bless you sir xxxx
Just Beautiful! - It made my Wednesday evening - great idea - loving the new record - Cheers! 🍺 D
Top notch, Rich 🙌. This should be a live album!
incredible, a really beautiful performance
Effortlessly brilliant ❤
Class guitarist/singer songwriter and a class band behind him.surely it don't get much better...
Absolutely love this ❤️ I wish I’d been there at The Grapes. Love your lyrics and your voice xx
Thanks for this good trip ❤
Gorgeous performance. I love the simplicity, intimacy and quality. ❤
The Streets are Ours. What a song and such understated but feeling laden vocals. That middle eight section is lovely, too. Richard’s guitarist fills out these pared down versios so well.
A convert since Adrian Dunbar sang 'open up your door' in Ridley. Just had to look you up & glad I did. You've got me through some bad times recently for which I thank you Sir. Hugs to Billy too - Hazel will be listening =X=
Thank you ❤
