About Mayer Hawthorne

Andrew Cohen is the unlikely soul man known as Mayer Hawthorne, a whimsical persona turned long-term creative pursuit with a deep catalog of increasingly urbane and eclectic recordings grounded in classic R&B. Cohen debuted his primary stage name with "Just Ain't Gonna Work Out" (2008), a bittersweet pop-soul single with a purposefully dusty and amateurish charm. He soon landed a major-label contract that led to the Top Ten Billboard R&B/hip-hop albums How Do You Do (2011), Where Does This Door Go (2013), and Man About Town (2016). Those sessions, along with the subsequent Rare Changes (2020), integrated smooth funk and breezy West Coast AOR rock flavors with a modern aesthetic. Cohen simultaneously explored other sounds as one-half of the duos Jaded Incorporated and Tuxedo, and had a hand in Doja Cat's Top 40 hit "Attention" before releasing his heady sixth solo album, For All Time (2023).
