Lomelda

Hannah

Read has opened up immensely on both an emotional and musical level, resulting in her most resonant body of work yet.

The stunning, open-hearted new album from indie rock singer-songwriter Hannah Read renders personal crises with a deft and delicate touch.

Hannah is taken straight from the mind of a wallflower, apprehensive and always low-key.

Read peels back the events of her life to reveal open-hearted ruminations on loneliness, long distances, chance encounters, and missed connections. All suffused with the appropriate amount of emotional depth and a warmly fuzzed lo-fi delivery.

Lomelda took over a year and three tries to record Hannah. They needed to get it right. They did.

Holding herself and her art to higher standards, Hannah is a capsule of acceptance, frustration, and growth; an artist making her devotion hold pockets of answerless questions and gracious light with a far reach.

Despite any of its mopier moments, Hannah is another solid piece of output from a dedicated and thoughtful lyricist.
