Chris Hawkins (BBC 6 Music) presents Awesome Friends

Hunkpapa frontman, Weston, is embarking on a solo career as Weston Loney with his extraordinarily brilliant debut, Breaking Out. Weston's music evokes the stadium spirit of The Boss and the anthemic nature of the Killers, which was evident in his previous band but also hints of early U2 too.

Chris Hawkins has a standout show on BBC 6 Music championing alternative anthems and fresh sounds. Chris was an early supporter of emerging acts Sam Fender, Wet Leg and The Lathums, now all headline performers.
