“Hannah is a consummate storyteller and as soon as I heard her songs I was happily bewitched... I think we’re both very similar in the fact that we are obsessive film aficionados & therefore think in a more visual way in our approach to the music and the sounds.

The album received great praise, cementing Hannah’s place as a highly respected lyricist, storyteller, and musician on the UK scene.
