Scottish singer-songwriter Hamish Hawk returns with "Men Like Wire," the third single from his forthcoming third studio album, "A Firmer Hand." "Men Like Wire" has an immediate human quality. Rather than focusing on a specific relationship or experience, the song opens the door to a much wider collection of encounters. Hawk draws on the strangers and familiar faces you encounter in the most ordinary places.
It gives the track an interesting sense of scope. The result is a song that explores the mystery of other men through memory, observation, affection, and loss, making the familiar feel newly complicated. "Men Like Wire" is also a natural progression from the ideas explored in Hawk's previous writing, taking the notion of the "limitless mysteries of other men" and digging deeper.
"Men Like Wire," the third taste of "A Firmer Hand," finds Hamish Hawk in a reflective mood, taking a seemingly simple subject and making it expansive, personal, and quietly compelling. It's a song about people, memories, and the strange mysteries that remain between us.
