Hannah’s ‘Inside Out’ tour presents her carefully curated selection of original compositions alongside the iconic songs that she holds close to her heart. The result is an intriguing and diverse show and strikes the perfect balance between exciting new music and timeless classics.

The spectrum of emotions explored on the album range from trauma to elation and are based on concepts and experiences that are felt and understood by society as a whole. Hannah explains the sentiment of the album perfectly by saying that “It’s about human emotion, trauma, exultation and more, and my response to these. It is a reflection that throughout life we grow, we as humans build resilience and how time teaches us confidence, inner strength and acceptance.”

An official Henri Selmer Artist, graduate of the prestigious Guildhall School of Music and Drama and Trinity Laban, and member of award winning Women in Jazz Media, Hannah works the jazz world in her own authentic way. Her most recent album ‘Inside Out’ has received critical acclaim worldwide and she continues to wow audiences with her creative, compelling, emotive and alluring playing, alongside her warm and charming personality on stage.
