Hannah Acfield

Melbourne based Australian soulful singer songwriter Hannah Acfield charms with exquisite vocals, and bold self assured songwriting. Described as “a luscious blend of Jeff Buckley, Aretha Franklin and Joni Mitchell”, she combines the storytelling of indie folk with soaring, stirring vocals inspired by soul and gospel. The release of debut solo LP No Light Without Shade, has been Acfield’s blossoming. A sense of freedom, of power and fluidity, define a record dubbed a “masterpiece” (Francesca de Valence) and a “triumph of talent” (Phil Stafford, The Australian); a record with which Acfield moves beyond the folk demesne that defined her early career, and into a new realm that is hers and hers alone, her otherworldly voice and poignant writing heralding the arrival of an Australian singer-songwriter of serious note. “Truly wonderful songwriting” – Larry Heath, The AU Review “An excellent album” – Neil Rogers, Triple R "Extraordinary voice" - John O'Brien, The Courier Mail ★★★★ - City Hub Sydney “The best voice I’ve heard in a long time” - Venetta Fields “A beautiful voice” – Joan Armatrading “A rising star” - Andrea Kirwin, Peace Run Records “Album and live artist of the year” - Monique Hartman, Byron Music Festival One half of the sibling folk duo The Acfields
