Space rock band Hawklords, fronted by Jerry Richards and singer Kriss Gordelier, return to the UK touring circuit to mark 18 years since their 2008 reboot.
Hawklords play the Wrecking Ball Arts Centre on Friday 13 November, their first Hull date since the band rebooted in 2008. It's a space rock set that draws on founding guitarist Jerry Richards' history with Hawkwind, alongside songs by Robert Calvert, who wrote 'Silver Machine', and the late Hawkwind member Nik Turner. The new studio album, SIGNALS, arrived in late October 2026, so the set will be working with fresh material.
The line-up pairs Richards, a 2025 Prog Legend Award winner, with singer Kriss Gordelier, who comes from the prog-metal band Marquis de Sade. It's a new pairing for the band, and the show marks 18 years since they returned to the UK touring circuit. The set reaches back into the Hawkwind songbook, with Calvert and Turner both having written for the band, so the night pulls from a few different eras of that sound.
