Originating from Central Otago in New Zealand, songsmith Hannah Curwood has previously released 2 records, Sky Above Horse Below (2007) and The Blind Love EP (2009). Both critically acclaimed, tracks such as murder ballad It’s Been Snowing All Winter (http://www.youtube.com/watch'v=LuQK7Z_9Cuc) brought attention to Hannah’s use of dark lyrics, twisted imagery and ethereal melody to earn her a place as one of NZ’s celebrated alternative female writers.
Now based in London, Hannah in the Wars are adding the finishing touches to a 10 track album of powerful new material. Recorded between the country home of Roger O Donnell (The Cure) and a canal-side studio in Haggerston, the songs are vivid emotional narratives, encapsulating a dark, ephemeral beauty within a cocoon of rippling Telecaster, nymphic vocal layers, earthy string harmonics, commanding piano/synth and the brooding pulse of an orchestral percussionist on the kit.
