Description

Ron Hawkins has long been revered as one of Canada's greatest contemporary singer-songwriters. 

As lead singer/multi-instrumentalist and main songwriter of Canada's legendary Lowest of the Low, Ron Hawkins has enjoyed many accolades through the years:

In 1996, 2000 and again in 2005, Chart Magazine honoured the group's 1991 debut album, Shakespeare My Butt, with spots in the top 10 of the Top 100 Canadian Albums of All Time. In 2000 and once again in 2015, Hawkins was voted Songwriter of the Year by NOW Magazine's reader's poll. Also in 2000, Ron received Toronto station 102.1 The Edge's Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2008 The Lowest of the Low was inducted into the Canadian Indie Rock Hall of Fame and awarded gold records for Shakespeare My Butt. In 2018 Warner Music Canada released Shakespeare… My Box, a commemorative career spanning Lowest of the Low box set.

 Over the years, Ron has written and released eight LOTL albums, six solo discs, three records with his band The Rusty Nails, and three records (one a double album) as Ron Hawkins and The Do Good Assassins - that’s 20 albums of original material to date.

His latest album with LOWEST OF THE LOW, Welcome To The Plunderdome, was released in 2023.
