Tranquilamente Radio with ciénaga @ The Lot Radio 04 - 13 - 2024

A composer, vocalist, and genre-spanning collaborator, Hanna Benn has been creating music for over a decade. Her multi-disciplinary approach incorporates dance, opera, and theater — submerging boundaries and discovering new sonic landscapes in the process. With roots in gospel and choral music, Benn began exploring music as both an intimate and collective experience at an early age.

Benn's voice carries the crispness of cathedral tones — the sensuality of her sacred sonic corpus mixes with a clarity that rushes ambiguity out through stained glass windows. Able to take clearly delineated genres, deconstruct them, and then unify them in her work, Benn creates pieces that are simultaneously accessible and profound, elevated and organic, sacred and common.

She wrote and recorded work on Son Lux's "Bones" album and toured with Boots (who has produced Beyoncé, FKA Twigs, and Run the Jewels). Her commissioned work and compositions have been performed across the country, from a five-hour opera and dance performance in collaboration with Alice Gosti and the Northwest Symphony Orchestra to a composition celebrating Black American composers with Davida Ingram and the North Chamber Orchestra. She recently completed a residency at Central State in Indianapolis where she wrote much of her debut EP.
