About: Hawthorne Headhunters
St. Louis, Missouri is the genesis for Coultrain, Black Spade and the group Hawthorne Headhunters. ‘Train grew up in the church, singing since an early age and wading into poetry in his early teens. Spade also came up in the church and tagged along with his father on educational trips to local record stores which cemented his love and dedication to music.
After spending their years sharpening their respective musical skills and bouncing around a few groups around St. Louis (including a stint in a 25 piece group called Soul Tyde with future Hawthorne Headhunter collaborator and friend I, Ced), the two met in 1999 during a rehearsal for a group Spade was in. They recognized their shared influences and a life-long musical kinship was born. The two still pursued other endeavors for some time, leaving St. Louis and returning periodically, all the while still maintaining communication with each other. Coultrain self-released his first full length project, the narrative The Adventures of Seymour Liberty, and joined the cast of Waajeed’s PPP for their second album, Abundance. Spade collaborated with a variety of artists before finally releasing his debut To Serve With Love on OM Records. It wasn’t until Spade moved out to LA in the mid-2000’s that the Hawthorne Headhunters were born.
