NEW!!! (updated 11/12/08): The Hawk In October is thrilled to announce the addition to our lineup of Ruibo Qian, an excellent female singer/songwriter, classical violinist and actor. Ruibo was born in Shanghai, raised in Texas, attended Boston University, and now calls Chicago home. Ruibo and Jeff have been working the Chicago open mic circuit, and have been wowing the audiences with their two-part work on Hawk songs as well as Ruibo's own compositions. We'll post recordings of one such open mic as soon as we can lay hands on them. Meanwhile, please go check out Ruibo on MySpace. to get a feel for what she'll be bringing to the band, and watch for new Hawk show postings. Welcome, Ruibo!
