Hinkson disappeared into the fray in 2009 and 2010 taking a needed break after his 2nd release, THE TORRENT SESSIONS, which had highlighted success with "Contamination Day", a pounding rocker that made earned a spot CTV/NBC's "The Listener" and Power 97's "River City Rawks" compilation and #61 out of 97 for the 2008 year amongst other radio play across Canada. He returned refreshed and with a varied sound on 2011's release ONE BESIDE TWO, his 3rd album balanced with half new material and some older material. The result is a more organic sounding record, highlighting Hinkson's voice and writing abilities. More mellow and slightly darker than the other two releases, ONE BESIDE TWO paints landscapes of loss, recovery, and struggle within all through a simplified sound overall but still accented with his ambient, haunting leads and moodiness that defines his production style. CD release targeted for summer or September and support ongoing from there while Hinkson continues to explore TV/Film licensing opportunities and a beneficial management, publishing, and/or distribution/label arrangement.
