Stones Throw is home to Madlib and many of his projects: Madvillain, Jaylib, Yesterdays New Quintet, Quasimoto, Sound Directions and Lootpack. Other notable artists on the Stones Throw's past and present roster include Gary Wilson, The Turntablist (aka DJ Babu), Rob Swift, Rasco, Breakestra, Oh No, Dudley Perkins, J Dilla (aka Jay Dee), Koushik and James Pants. J Dilla's final album during his lifetime, Donuts, was released by Stones Throw in February 2006.
In 2006 the label announced new signings Aloe Blacc, J Rocc, Roc C, Cue, and Georgia Anne Muldrow, Mayer Hawthorne and an upcoming compilation of new material including Madvillain for the Adult Swim network. Jeff Jank is the designer of a great deal of the album covers on the Stones Throw label.
"Mayer Hawthorne (born Andrew Mayer Cohen[1][2] in 1978 or 1979[4]) is a singer, producer, songwriter, arranger, audio engineer, DJ, rapper and multi-instrumentalist[1][3][4] based in Los Angeles, California, USA[1]. The stage name "Mayer Hawthorne" is a combination of Cohen's real middle name (Mayer) and the name of the street he grew up on in Michigan (Hawthorne Rd).[2] "Mayer Hawthorne and The County" is a name Cohen often uses when performing or recording as Mayer Hawthorne with other artists. In Cohen's words, "The County" is basically anyone who plays an instrument or sings on his album. It’s also his band when he performs live.[3] Cohen also performs and records Hip Hop music under the stage name "Haircut", sometimes as part of the groups "Now On".
" & Athletic Mic League.[3]
Born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA,[1][4] Hawthorne moved to Los Angeles after being signed to LA based Stones Throw Records by label head Peanut Butter Wolf.[1][4]
Mayer Hawthorne draws influence from the music of Curtis Mayfield , Isaac Hayes, Leroy Hutson, Mike Terry, Barry White, Smokey Robinson and the legendary songwriting and production trio of Lamont Dozier, Brian Holland, and Edward Holland, Jr. (known collectively as Holland–Dozier–Holland).[1][4]
His debut single, Just Ain't Gonna Work Out/When I Said Goodbye, was released on a red heart-shaped 7" record on Stones Throw Records on November 4, 2008.[5] His second single Maybe So, Maybe No/I Wish It Would Rain was released on a 12" record on Stones Throw Records on April 19, 2009.[6] His debut album, A Strange Arrangement was released on CD and LP on Stones Throw Records on September 8, 2009.[7]
In July 2009, Hawthorne was featured on the cover of the third anniversary issue of Beyond Race Magazine (BRM).[8]
The song Just Ain't Gonna Work Out was chosen as the Starbucks iTunes Pick of the Week for October 13, 2009.[9]
The song When I Said Goodbye features in the Kanye West-Spike Jonze short film We Were Once A Fairytale."
