Hawksley Workman has garnered plenty of critical acclaim for his blend of caberet pop and glam rock . He has released eleven full-length albums throughout his career with his album Lover/Fighter considered one of his masterpieces.

It's been 20 years since Hawksley's 2003 album Lover/Fighter, and the songwriter will celebrate the milestone by taking the album back on tour this fall.

Workman wrote, "I remember back to the years when we toured this record, and the live moments I used to love every night, like playing the explosive bridge in 'To Not Romanticize,' emotional moments in 'Ilfracombe,' and the inevitable groovy rock-out at the end of 'Smoke'… I so look forward to being engrossed in the songs from this now-two-decades-old collection of music.
