Sometimes you really have to take a step back and ask yourself if someone is actually good for you or not. It can be a difficult process, and breaking away from a toxic situation can be even more difficult. Hannah Hausman’s been there, and hopes to empower you to make the best decisions for yourself with her new single “will i ever feel like this again?”
Hannah Hausman had a thing for poetry throughout her childhood and teen years. After some encouragement from her parents, she took up playing the piano and guitar. By now, you probably know where this story is heading. Hannah’s music career was written in the stars, but she was also heavily involved in high school athletics and beauty pageants too.
Hannah went on to study communications at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in 2014. During her senior year, she experienced an unfortunate sports injury which required surgery and tons of post-op rest. During this time, it occurred to Hannah that she could sing her poems, and she started writing her own music.
As soon as Hannah was able to walk again, she headed to Australia and spent a year at Hillsong College’s songwriting program. She ended up reconnecting with a friend from high school who was working on an EP in LA, and invited Hannah to lay down some vocals for the project.
Life has a tendency to throw out many curveballs, but we all find ways to cope with them. While on this trip, Hannah unfortunately caught a virus that caused her to loose her voice. She spent an entire year without being able to sing, talk, or even hum. However, this didn’t cause Hannah’s creativity to come to a halt. Having faith that her voice would make a comeback very soon, Hannah continued to write music and prepped for a day when she’d be able to record it.
Since then, Hannah’s 2018 debut single “lost in brooklyn” has received over 1 million streams. She currently sits at almost 50,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, and recently signed to Quadio Records. Hannah is determined to make the most honest and fulfilling music possible. Of course, this includes “will i ever feel like this again?,” which encourages listeners to simply strive for the best!
“I started writing this song a year ago to navigate my conflicting feelings about a guy who I always loved but knew would be bad for me,” Hannah says. “Even though I knew he wasn’t right for me, he made me feel something I had never felt before. We ended up dating and our relationship was even more toxic than I imagined. It was so hard to leave him because I was so scared to fall back into apathy. The song follows my intuition and emotions as they fight against one another, and I gain the courage to walk away.”
We’re rooting for you Hannah. Always.
