It’s always exciting the witness the birth of a new and special collaboration project. One of our favourites so far this year is between London based singer-songwriter Hannah White and a Norwegian Americana supergroup headed by legendary producer & composer HP Gundersen. Together they are releasing an exciting self-titled debut album on June 5th.
This unique line-up has already released the singles ‘City Beats’, ‘My Father’ and ‘Never Get Along’ with new single ‘Pay Me A Compliment' set for release shortly, The debut single ‘City Beats’ was debuted on BBC Radio 2 last year.
The album is a wonderful collection of songs recorded live in a bread factory in Bergen and without a hint of digital recording. The production is refreshingly warm, authentic, and honest. After a band tour in 2019 which covered UK festivals such as Black Deer, Lamer Tree and The British Country Music Festival, they are awaiting the lifting of the current Covid 19 restrictions to tour again. We can guarantee that they are going to have a busy schedule.
This album is another exciting chapter in Hannah’s music journey after the successful launch of her last solo album ‘Elephant Eye'‘ with six of the album’s single receiving national and local airplay.
In keeping with the commitment to social inclusion in her songs, Hannah and her husband Keiron are also finalising plans for a new south London location of their multi-award winning music venue The Sound Lounge which will also incorporate an arts centre and community space.
Hannah comments “The coming together with the Nordic Connection happened after a phone call from a mutual contact, now a close friend. I agreed to play a live show and after one brief meet-up in a bread factory in Bergen and a sold-out gig with a mind-blowing band, the deal was sealed.
