Two friends in a room making noise, letting off steam. We have played together in various formations and genres for many years, which has lead us to being in Hannahband.

 

Friends and feelings.

 

Friendly audiences, diverse lineups, awkward banter, loud pop songs, sing a longs :)

 

Marnie: When I was 18 I decided to go too art school and my dad said to me "I'm glad that your different." It was just a simple comment that he probably didn't mean much by, but it gave me the confidence that I needed to go out and make art and music which in return has made me happy.

Nathan: "book the shows you want to see" a friend of mine said this too me a while back and it really is an inspiring attitude to have.

 

Nathan: Mental As Anything - Live It Up. It's a cheer up Charlie pub rock classic.

Marnie: Nana V makes me smile :)

 

Nathan: Jess Locke - Change The Sheets. It's a sad banger, you will cry because you will realise that Jess is the best. It's also a very sad song.

Marnie: every song by Harmony.

 

Marnie: The Grates - Trampoline

Nathan: Bodyjar - Not The Same 

 

We are on tour at the moment, so the last few local gigs we have both been to have been ours. We've been lucky to play with some of our fave australian artists: Bilby, Camp Cope, Jess Locke Band, Canine, Snape, The Flying So High'os, If I Were A Boy, Nervous Habit & Amaringo.

 

The Sydney DIY scene is thriving thanks to people like Tom from Blackwire Records and Tara Jane from One Brick Today. Their thankless hard effort is inspiring! Tom spends 2-4 nights a week running a DIY venue out of his record store and house so that local bands like us have somewhere to play. Tara Jane promotes gender equality and queer visibility by booking consistent shows with mixed bills the encourage safe spaces for all people to enjoy music in. 

 

We have some really exciting shows coming up like Poison City Weekender. We are excited to play our music to different people in different places, we are going to Perth for a festival and hopefully Tasmania. We will also be working on a new album as always :-)
