Welsh singer-songwriter Hannah Grace (real name: Hannah Vivian-Byrne) is a versatile artist. She describes her sound as soul and jazz inspired. Yet, her second single Mustang, which put her on my radar, was a rocky one. And she broke through with her gospel take on Fatboy Slim’s Praise You.

Her new single Blue however, brings a bright new twist to her sound. Enlisting funky keys and horns alongside her great vocals, this tune is as poppy as pop can get. Sure to make you feel good!

Regarding the single, which will be on her upcoming debut album, Hannah says, “I wrote it about being tired of feeling blue all the time! I wanted to put all of my energy into feeling positive. (…) Everybody gets down with the pressures and sadness of the real world but sometimes you just have to let your hair down and let it go.”
