What’s the story behind the song? This song is about how writing music about your personal life complicates said personal life. There was a time where writing and releasing music was really clouding some of my vision in terms of the real life. Kind of a college thing I think. Because I would see the […]
How has the release been going? As an artist and person, I feel so fulfilled and so proud, and I think this is the kind of thing that I look at and listen to. I’m just like, I can’t believe this is mine. What’s the story behind the song? I went through two crazy breakups […]
What’s the story behind “Crime 2 Lie”? I wrote this at a time when I didn’t really have anything going on in my life worth writing about. It was the first time I wrote something I didn’t experience but was writing based on the feeling rather than the experience. I just made up a story […]
What’s your favorite memory from your latest tour? We performed in Boise, Idaho, and there was some ping pong and pool tables downstairs at the venue. I taught my pedal steel player the Cotton Eye Joe dance, and it was very fun. What’s your favorite part of being on the road? It’s just so cool […]
What’s the story behind the song? “Favor” is about a long-term relationship that I had stayed in long after it stopped serving me. It was built on a lot of broken trust and betrayal, and despite everything he had done to me, I still held on. I kept trying to see the best in him […]
What’s the story behind “chinese finger trap”? This song is about me hooking up with one of my closest friends.

With this person, we’re super good friends, but our dynamic isn’t wholly on the platonic side of that […]
What’s the story behind ‘FTSG’? I started dating women this year, and it’s been fun. It’s something I’ve finally come to terms with. The first time I was talking to a girl, it was peak situationship-core. She incessantly used the word “baby,” and I hated it with a fiery passion sent from god. I’ve never […]
What’s the story behind ‘Should we do it again?’? I wrote this song in May of last year, right after me and my ex had broken up and he just kept wanting to get back together. I felt like I had to really ask myself if that’s what I really wanted. He was so persistent […]
Who is Hana Bryanne? I am a cowgirl who can’t drive a stick, a pseudo intellectual wearing jeans, a former ballerina from Northern California, and a weird little freak. How’s been preparing for the tour? We’ve been rehearsing a lot with my buddy Ben, who’s playing […]
What are you looking forward to this summer? This summer, I’m kind of just hanging out. I’ve traveled so much in the last eight months, so I’m ready to stay put for a second and then figure the rest out. I’m opening for Nick Wagen, who I’ve been friends with for a while now. It’s […]
