Although he started taking guitar lessons at the age of nine, he never considered a career in music until 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The twenty-one-year-old, currently a third year BCom Informatics student at the University of Pretoria, released his first single in April 2021 and has already won several local music awards including <em>Best Entry Level Performer<\/em>, <em>Best Popular Music Student<\/em> and <em>Best Vocal with Instrument Student of the Year<\/em> at The Legends of Arts SA Championships. He has also had the privilege of opening for popular acts like Loki Rothman and The Debbi Lonmon Band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest influence on his musical journey, is his guitar teacher and member of the duo Little Sister, Debbi Lonmon, but he admits that artists like Billie Eilish, Dean Lewis, The Beatles and Queen also impacted his own style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Freddie enjoys listening to a wide variety of music but is intrigued by wintered artists like Neil Diamond, Tracey Chapman, Bruce Springsteen and many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If he had to choose a different career, he would have liked to be a professional golfer. When he is not on stage, he enjoys building sports cars and spending time in the kitchen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The young artist\u2019s plans for the future include releasing more songs and being on stage as much as possible. <em>\u201cI am trying to establish myself as an independent musician. It is a very challenging and expensive process, with no safety net. But I am fortunate enough to have the support of my parents in everything I do,\u201d<\/em> he shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Freddie Hawmanbelieves that his music should always be fresh and different and hopes that <strong><em>CENTERFOLD<\/em><\/strong> will appeal to listeners of all ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The single is now available for digital download.

Alhoewel hy al kitaar speel vandat hy nege is, het hy eers in 2020 begin oorweeg om \u2019n loopbaan van musiek te maak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Di\u00e9 een-en-twintigjarige musikant, tans \u2019n derdejaar BCom Informatika-student aan die Universiteit van Pretoria, het sy eerste enkelsnit in April 2021 uitgereik en reeds verskeie musiektoekennings ingepalm, waaronder <em>Beste Sanger op Intreevlak<\/em>, <em>Beste Popmusiek-student<\/em> en <em>Beste Stem met Instrument-student van die Jaar<\/em> by die The Legends of Arts SA Championships.
