Aristazabal Hawkes is the double bass player for the British indie band Guillemots. She was born in Sointula, an isolated village on Malcolm Island in British Columbia, Canada. She has studied piano classically, and jazz in New York.
She used to work on a cruise ship where she claims she only played Frank Sinatra songs. She cites some of her influences as Ron Carter, Paul Chambers and Charles Mingus. During an interview in the summer of 2006 it was also mentioned that fellow band member Fyfe Dangerfield had bought the Van Morrison album Astral Weeks for her (Richard Davis plays the upright bass on this album).
