Hannah Diamond

Glassy-eyed automaton and PC Music pioneer Hannah Diamond has been trundling on for a few years releasing random singles, but there have been rumblings that her debut(!) album will finally be released soon so let's have a topic

She's just put out a single called Invisible, which as a slice of robotic melancholy doesn't exactly reinvent the wheel for her but I love it:

Alright, so Invisible mysteriously vanished from the internet later on the same day - apparently it was accidentally released early.

HOWEVER, it's back at midnight! And the video's out tomorrow! And she's also going to announce the album release and a tour!



I'm very excited, particularly for the tour as I had to talk both myself and my friend out of braving the Megabus to see her in Manchester last month...

Stunning video for Invisible, I'm slightly obsessed with her aesthetic:


The album's called Reflections and is out on the 22nd of November.

The album cover is both and

Invisible is FANTASTIC as is the video, so happy she’s getting the album out finally (and WHAT A COVER )

Her pinnacle so far of course remains Fade Away (albeit with Invisible straight in as her second best song). A TOTAL modern day sad-banger to rival the classics.

OMG this album is a DREAM! Pop perfection.

I’m aware most of the tracks have been around for a while, but stitching them together as a body of work works so well and really elevates it all

I did add on Part Of Me to the end though as it just seems WEIRD without it. I will probably remove The Ending soon too.

Her version of Concrete Angel is my current fave

It's fantastic isn't it? I've not had much time with the album yet, but you're definitely right that the songs all work well together (even the older ones).

She's announced a mini-tour for early 2020, and she's finally coming to my neck of the woods

I now have tickets to see this queen

Stereo? Good venue. Weird two-tier stage, mind you.

Seeing Miss HD tonight

One of my work colleagues insists on calling her Dannah Himond. There's a good chance she'll be there too.
