HANNAH CONNOLLY
Americana & Folk Rock | LOS ANGELES, CA
'Shadowboxing' released March 1st, 2024
With a greatly-anticipated sophomore LP, ‘Shadowboxing’ released March 1st, 2024, Eau Claire-born and Los Angeles-based Americana artist Hannah Connolly is quickly making a name for herself with a varied canon of thoughtful ruminations that range from wistful romantic ballads to high-energy folk rock.
Since the release of her debut record, 2020’s ‘From Where you Are,’ Connolly has earned recognition from publications such as American Songwriter, The Bluegrass Situation, The Alternate Root and No Depression.
In 2023, her hypnotic cover of Billy Joel’s “Vienna” went viral, accumulating 1.3M streams worldwide with 'Reno’, the first single from ’Shadowboxing,' receiving airplay on LA’s KROQ and Ireland’s RTÉ1.
And it’s only the beginning. Influenced by the riveting storytelling and showmanship of Sheryl Crow, Roy Orbison, and Fleetwood Mac, Connolly’s intimate, yet engaging, live performances, in which she’s shared stages with Young the Giant, Dustbowl Revival and Jade Bird, are a beacon of light, "a joy to watch and not to be missed” [Music Connection Magazine].
