I think we need to talk about this one because it’s working for me in a big way. Full disclosure, I know Hannah In Real Life and I’m Writing About The Music Of A Friend but I’m wholly impartial when I say she can sing and sing well. That’s no new info, but something seems to have clicked recently and she’s combining that whole ‘can sing really well’ thing with ‘can write good songs’ and the combination of the two, as history will attest, often bears fruit. Her new song was home-studio’d into existence with the help of Tim Fitz who is going to be known for his production credits as much as his own output if he doesn’t settle down. He’s also rumoured to have been recording with Birds With Thumbs and March Of The Real Fly lately. Whoa Tim Fitz! Take it easy fella! Anyway, back to this song- guitar resolves and unresolves, back and forth in the background as Hannah builds to a drum heavy crescendo. The last thirty seconds sees vocal untether itself from lyric and it’s sort of a little bit kind of really a beautiful sound.




Have your say:
