Notes
Hannah Werdmuller is an independent singer-songwriter from Edinburgh, UK, who has been writing and recording music for over 15 years. Hannah has finally released her debut full-length debut album, Pre-Apocalyptic Love Song. Recorded in bedrooms, beaches and gardens, Pre-Apocalyptic Love Song has a strong folk vibe with a twist of blues, with influences from the likes of Woody Guthrie to Fiona Apple. With "a great talent for pulling together great and overflowing lyrical content" (Vinyl Puppet), Hannah's music has been compared to that of Joan Armatrading, Kathryn Williams and Ani DiFranco, but ultimately it is her originality, powerful vocals, catchy tunes and clever lyrics that define her.
Canny Man was written as a response to traditional murder ballads such as "Banks of the Ohio", where the love interest is killed by her spurned suitor. Canny Man took a turn for the dark and became a morally ambiguous tale of misfortune and crime, and is now one of Hannah's most-requested songs when playing live.
Track 5 Pre-Apocalyptic Love Song is set in a wasteland where litter is strewn indiscriminately, Greggs is closed, and the streets are devoid of human life - surely, the apocalypse. But wait! "Oh no no it's okay / It's just a Saturday / Everyone's in bed / Oh no no they're not dead." Sweet, quirky and uplifting, the album's title song tells an unconventional story of romance between two people who are waiting for the world to end so they can be together.
Track 6 Diurnal Migration was a finalist in the Geekpop Summer Songwriting Competition 2010. Judges called it “Delightful. It makes me want to start a marine biologist’s folk festival under the sea. With this sweet song you can almost see the singer tempting fishes over to nibble the algae growing on her underwater guitar.”
