The soft-spoken singer/songwriter has picked some classic tracks
Have you heard of Hannah Grace? She’s a Welsh singer/songwriter, and she sounds quite a lot like this:
She’s rather good, isn’t she
We love her voice, and we love her songs, so we figured that she’s probably got good taste in music. So, we asked her to put together a playlist of her favourite songs. Luckily, we weren’t disappointed – she chose some corkers…
Eva Cassidy – Kathy’s Song
‘Eva Cassidy is one of my earliest and most important inspirations. It’s always so hard to pick a favourite song, but today it’s Kathy’s Song. She has the most amazing way of making any song sound like it was written for her…
Nick Drake – Riverman
‘Nick Drake had an amazing way of sharing a perspective on life and love in his songs. His songs were so simple, and yet so poetic, and this song is no exception – you pick up something new on each listen.
Hozier – Cherry Wine
‘I love this song! The melody is so beautiful. It sounds really sweet, but the song is actually quite anxious and sad – it’s a genius way of delivering a sad story. I really look up to his songwriting.
Florence and The Machine – Queen of Peace
‘I love the energy in this track. Florence manages to express courage and frustration through her voice and the lyrics, and it always leaves me feel quite empowered. It’s definitely a favourite at the moment.
Paul Simon – The Sound of Silence
‘Apparently, Paul Simon wrote this when he was 15… That kinda says it all, really. Timeless, and totally unique.
Paulo Nutini – Iron Sky
I was blown away when I first heard this. To deliver such a strong and powerful message about peace in a song is so difficult. Paolo is a very special performer, and this song gets me every time”
