He played in the small Southern California band Sylvia before landing his first major gig as the drummer for Canadian vocalist Sass Jordan. Hawkins told The Associated Press in 2019 that his early drumming influences included Stewart Copeland of The Police, Roger Taylor of Queen and Phil Collins, who he said was "one of my favorite drummers. You know, people forget that he was a great drummer as well as a great guy from the 80s, poor thing. » When he spent two years in the mid-1990s drumming for Morrissette, he was primarily inspired by Stephen Perkins' playing of Jane's Addiction.

I didn't look exactly like him, I looked like me, but he was a big, huge influence. » He and Grohl met backstage at a show while Hawkins was still with Morrissette. Grohl's band would have an opening soon after, when then-drummer William Goldsmith left. Grohl called Hawkins, who was a huge Foo Fighters fan, and immediately agreed. "I'm not afraid to say that our chance meeting was something of a love at first sight, igniting a musical 'twin flame' that still burns to this day," Grohl writes in his book. “Together we have become an unstoppable duo, on and off stage, pursuing whatever adventures we can find. » Hawkins first appeared with the band in the 1997 video for the Foo Fighters' most popular song, "Everlong", although he had not yet joined the band when the song was recorded.

In another highlight of the band's gigs, Grohl got behind the drums and Hawkins took the mic to sing a cover of Queen's "Somebody to Love." "The best part about being the Foo Fighters lead singer for just one song is that I truly have the greatest rock 'n' roll drummer on planet Earth," Hawkins said ahead of the song during a concert on March 18 in Chile. Grohl can be heard telling him to shut up. Hawkins also co-starred in Foo Fighters' recently released comedy-horror film, "Studio 666," in which a demonic force at a house the group is staying seizes Grohl and renders him murderous.

Hawkins is survived by his wife Alison and their three children.
