Editor's note

Mayer Hawthorne's soulful heartbreak and retro grooves

A Detroit-born singer who channels classic R&B through modern heartbreak songs.

For a quick sense of his lane, try 'Green Eyed Love' or the newer 'Corsican Rosé.' They both have that easy, bittersweet sway.

Hawthorne's music feels like a direct line to the soul records he grew up with in his father's collection. Songs like 'Green Eyed Love' and 'Book Of Broken Hearts' handle romantic disappointment with a light touch and a steady groove. He makes that vintage sound feel immediate, not just nostalgic.

He started making music after moving to Los Angeles, working with producer Jake One. Their collaboration led to his 2009 debut 'A Strange Arrangement' and later the side project The Tuxedo. The songs have stayed focused on love and heartbreak, from 'Just Ain't Gonna Work Out' to later tracks like 'They Don't Know You'.
