Hot on the heels of her acclaimed debut single, "Wolf", comes the second impressive single from Aussie newcomer, Hannah Frances.
"That Night" is primarily a break up song that references a specific night where Hannah let go of a long-term relationship.
"This song expresses the doubts that may consume you after ending a long-term relationship", she says.
"That Night tells the story of the night I let go of a relationship and how I thought with my head instead of my heart - as my heart was too hurt to react at the time".
While "That Night" focuses on the specific night in question – in reality Hannah clarifies that the complicated story eventually ended with a happy ending!
As the second single released from her forthcoming EP, "That Night", was written by Hannah and impeccably produced and arranged by Lee Bradshaw. Joining Hannah on acoustic guitar is renowned Australian musician, Brett Garsed (John Farnham/Nelson). Brett is also the mastermind behind the electric guitar solo. Rounding out the studio ensemble are Gerry Pantazis (Anthony Callea/Bachelor Girl) on drums and Rich Panaia (Christine Anu/Lucy Durack) on bass.
The Melbourne singer-songwriter has a haunting and hypnotising sound and cites artists including Joni Mitchell, Fleetwood Mac and Lana Del Rey as major influences.
Hannah's music has been described as 'a sweet and dark musical terrain that traverses folk, pop and the sounds of the singer-songwriter generation of artists who trail blazed out of Greenwich Village in the 60's'.
Having cut her teeth in open mic nights and backyard concerts around Melbourne, Hannah has now moved her career onto support performances for local and international artists.
Melbourne may be a long way from the famous New York region that spawned many musical storytellers, but its echo can be heard loud and clear in Hannah's intoxicating blend.
