Singer-songwriter with first album "Blue Sky Now" out later this year. Jazzy/Folky. Peak District
My first tour is over. Was lovely to sing my songs... hear tunes written on my little keyboard brought to life by fantastic musicians, and connect with some truly scrumptious audiences.

Can I do it all again soon please?!

Thanks to all the venues and players and everyone who came along!

This is it kids! Blue Sky Now is out in the wild. It really does take a village and this album has allowed me to cover a lot of musical and emotional ground and growth.

There are many thanks and I'm so so sorry if I've forgotten you but here goes in no particular order. With love and gratitude

I was lucky enought to chat to Robert Elms on BBC Radio London last week about my new album Blue Sky Now and he even played two tracks. Here are the edited highlights!

BBC Introducing were so kind about my latest single Cobwebs & Lace last week - here's what they said!

One week until Blue Sky Now is released - can't wait for you to hear it!

My next single, out on May 30th, is another track from my forthcoming album Blue Sky Now.

This is Cobwebs & Lace, written with the lovely Emily Phillips. It’s all about childhood memories and finding your independence as you grow.

The next single from my forthcoming album Blue Sky Now will be released at the end of the month - I'll be telling you all about it and sharing a sneaky clip next Friday - make sure you come back and listen!

Astrud Gilberto - growing up I had a Brazilian friend, so was lucky to be introduced to lots of bossa nova records. I love this era of music, and Astrud is the queen. Astrud’s tone is so light and I really like that it feels sophisticated rather than overly saccharine.

Nancy Wilson - I am late to this party, and what a party it is. Such soulful and beautiful singing. She is up there as one of my favourite vocalists now.

Chet Baker - I love how much character he has in his voice. He doesn’t chase ‘the pocket’ for his groove, but allows his melodies to float over. He interprets so many standards and really makes them his own, almost like they are his original tunes, they feel so personal.

Ella Fitzgerald - there is a reason she is considered one of the greatest singers of all time. Her scat is brilliant. Her phrasing is brilliant. Her tone is wonderful. I’ve never heard her sing anything that isn’t exquisite

It’s #InternationalJazzDay so I thought I’d celebrate five of the greats that I have taken huge inspiration from. Firstly Bill Evans. His playing makes me feel things - it’s emotional and beautiful, it taps into something higher than us.

Here's my gig report from last Saturday, the first gig in my 2025 tour, in Oswestry at the Hermon Arts Centre, a behind the scenes look at what it's like to be a touring musician! If you're coming to Glossop this Saturday, or Woking or Matlock Bath later in May then I'll see you there!

My new single One Precious life is out now - stream it everywhere or buy direct from Bandcamp here hannahbrine.bandcamp.com/track/one-pr...

My new single “One Precious Life” is out this Friday.

My whole album is the most personal my songwriting has ever been, so I thought you’d like to know a little bit about what prompted me to write this one.

Presave now & play on Friday! ditto.fm/one-precious...

My tour starts next Saturday in Oswestry, then we visit Glossop, Woking & Matlock Bath, before so many more! The music featured here is my new single One Precious Life which is out next Friday - it's going to be a very busy week!

Today is #RecordStoreDay - a day to encourage everyone to support independent record shops ... so I’m thrilled to be able to announce today that I’ll be playing a one-off acoustic gig at Rough Trade Denmark Street on June 29th at 3pm.

One Precious Life 🌟💛

It's a life affirming song, to encourage us to live in the moment and count our blessings .

While I’ve been planning what merchandise/merch I should be taking on tour, I've also been loving the doll in a box trend I’m seeing everywhere. I don’t think these would sell (if they really existed), & my merch budget isn’t big enough to justify actually making them! Would anyone really buy one?!

Happy International Songwriters' day to all my songwriting friends - may your cups overflow with ideas & may your PRS cheques be large

I’ve always loved songs; my parents' record collection was my first influence - the books on top of the piano at home - Buffy Saint-Marie, Joni, James Taylor etc.

I've got exciting news to announce next Friday April 11th - don't miss it!
