Hi there,

Today I am delighted to be arts calling indie folk singer-songwriter Hannah Wyatt! (linktr.ee/hannahwyatt)

About our guest: hannah wyatt is an emerging indie folk singer-songwriter. her melancholic sound has blossomed over the years with influence from a score of artists the likes of keaton henson, joe purdy, the civil wars, gregory alan isakov, de-esser, sparklehorse, m. ward, and more. with her roots in upstate new york, hannah began classical violin at eight, and began songwriting around the age of thirteen. she earned her bachelor's degree in music production & recording arts at elon university. her first year at college, hannah was signed as an artist & managed through limelight records. the following year, she redirected her focus as an independent artist & later joined up with NC-based americana/folk band "love & valor" as a violinist, vocalist, graphic designer & recording engineer - touring & performing with the band until 2020.

at her core, hannah remains an independent musician, writing, recording & producing all her projects. while her early releases began in 2016 under a former name, she took a step down a new path in 2021 with the release of the album "phantom burn" under the new artist name hannah wyatt, later re-releasing an abridged version of this original album. throughout 2021 in various locations across the country, but mostly central colorado, her ep "iron line" was crafted & later released january of 2022. that following spring, she collaborated remotely with DC-based americana artist eli waltz, the duo released a 5-track EP entitled "waltz & wyatt" & embarked on a west coast tour that summer to promote the release. they have since done a second west coast sprint during the spring of 2024.

her following album, "hummingbird" is a 15-track record. with a more experimental, lo-fi tinge, expanding her sound from the somewhat more commercially friendly tracks of her past. the "underground" ep was released in may 2023 and continues along her more lo-fi bedroom sound. this project flirts with being a miniature concept album, dancing around the ideas of human nature during the state of cold war. hannah spends her free time freelancing string arrangements and various recordings for artists both local and far, and collaborates with bellingham label washingtones records.
