Chesney Hawkes became one of the biggest pop stars of his era with his irresistible mega-hit ‘The One and Only’ which has since had well over 100 million streams across digital platforms and is officially one of the top 20 most successful songs of the 90s. Having spent an unprecedented 5 weeks inside the Top 10, and reaching the coveted spot of a number one chart spot. ‘The One And Only’ became one of the most synced songs in TV and film history.
Chesney has recently re-ignited his career with his singles ‘Get A Hold of Yourself’, ‘Live Forever’ and ‘Loud’, landing on Radio 2’s A-list and performing a Radio 2 Piano Room – the singles will feature on his new album ‘Living Arrows’ which is out on 4th April 2025. Off the back of playing sold-out arenas in Europe supporting James Blunt, Chesney’s ‘Live In ‘25’ UK headline tour will be his first in over a decade, and follows his sold-out London show at the 02 Academy Islington last year.
‘Living Arrows’ is Chesney at his most vulnerable, completely free of inhibitions or doubts. There is heartache, yes, but there is joy, too, and gratitude for everything he has in life. Combined with his heartfelt, candid style of songwriting, the album’s cohesive pop-rock sound creates what is not only his greatest work to date but also the most authentic representation of the man behind the artist. The ‘Living Arrows’ album was produced and co-written by the BRIT Award winner and Grammy nominee Jake Gosling (Ed Sheeran, One Direction) with multiple co-writes alongside long-time friend and collaborator, 80’s legend Nik Kershaw. As well as the classic ‘kick the doors down pop/rock bangers’, mental health struggles are a recurring theme in the album, which is also reflected by the
news that Chesney has become an ambassador for the suicide prevention charity Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM). Chesney Hawkes is back…. Finally….
