Music That Takes Me Places

KING HANNAH, I'M NOT SORRY, I WAS JUST BEING ME

Quite a few debut albums caught my ear this year. None more than King Hannah's I'm Not Sorry, I Was Just Being Me. On it, Liverpool duo Hannah Merrick and Craig Whittle have created a dark and doleful space and mood that's mesmerizing and seductive. 

While there are no intentional themes to the album, Merrick and Whittle have said that childhood and memories and the warmth they bring drove the direction of many of the songs on the album. I guess. Feelings of Nostalgia and sentiment may live in these songs, but they are swirling around in dark waters with strong undercurrents. Perhaps not the best waters to swim in, but waters that I found myself wanting to dive into again and again.

Music has always been an important part of my life. My family and friends knew this well, often asking me what I was listening to and what I liked. It was always humbling to be asked, and eventually, I gathered the courage to create this music blog—to put into words what draws me to certain music and why. Over the years, my passion for writing has grown, along with my excitement for sharing musical discoveries. I hope your time here sparks excitement and leads you to a musical discovery of your own. More than anything, I hope your visit brings a little joy to your day.
