FIONA JOY HAWKINS, pianist/composer, produced by Will Ackerman (founder of Windham Hill Records), is an ARIA Finalist in Australia and winner of the ZMR Lifestyle Music Awards for Album of the Year. With over 43 awards across 9 countries, Fiona has worked with artists including T-Bone Wolk (Hall & Oates), Tony Levin (Peter Gabriel), Jeff Haynes (Pat Methany), and Eugene Friesen (Paul Winter Consort) to name a few.
