elllipsis 1,441 Posted July 16, 2013 "Hannah Cohen, born in San Francisco in 1986, left home as a teenager, soon finding herself in New York and becoming over the next few years something of a muse to the city's art scene, posing for Richard Prince, Terry Richardson, David Salle, Will Cotton,and Ryan McGinley.Hannah also immersed herself in New York's music scene, working at the Village Vanguard, and privately she started teaching herself guitar and writing songs. Hannah's debut record, Child Bride (2012), was produced by Thomas Bartlett, aka Doveman, known for his keyboard work with artists like The National, Martha Wainwright, and Antony and the Johnsons, and also producer of upcoming records by Glen Hansard and Julia Stone. The core band is a small group of some of New York musicians. About her inspirations, she says: "For the past five years I have been mostly listening to Brazilian vinyl from the 60s and 70s. The classics like Caetano Veloso—his record Jóia is an absolute favorite of mine."" --- Yeah, I know what you're thinking - " Yet another model turned singer. Right. *roll eyes* ". Well, what can I tell you. I completely fell in love with her voice and beautiful & incredibly melancholic songs. She's been described as "Lana Del Rey without all the Hollywood", and I can kinda see why; if I had to describe her album in 2 words I'd say "summertime sadness", for sure. I think she's quite special and definitely worth checking out. Sadly, her début album seems to have mostly passed under the radar... Here are two of her official (and always gorgeous) music videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOoRREGelhE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9O3Yp6PYAk And here is a live performance of my favourite song from the album: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZDuGlVpbAU 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
