BioBuzzfeed calls her a “blue and green dream scene,” but her mermaid hair isn’t all that draws the eye to Hana Kahn.
Nominated for the New England and Boston Music Awards Pop Artist of the Year, Hana’s voice and powerful stories showcase “emotional nakedness and elegant musicianship,” (The Deli Magazine), while her heartfelt ballads and upbeat, catchy pop numbers “guide a winding route to self-discovery” (Vanyaland). Hana derives inspiration from her life experiences, which have taught her that it is possible to start from anywhere and become anything you’ve dreamed of: All you need is self-love. Fall 2019 brings the release of her upcoming single, "Thrivers," followed by her 2020 sophomore album "Simply Be." |

"The sensual songs of Boston singer/songwriter Hana Kahn compel with their emotional nakedness and elegant musicianship....The strong-timbered Kahn boldly details solitude and longing...that excitingly add up to what can rightfully be called peaceful sonority. Perhaps like the most moving tracks in the singer/songwriter genre, Kahn’s subtly bold tunes seem personal but, impressively, can speak to many."
- Zach Weg, Writer for The Deli Magazine

Testimonials“What separates Hana from other artists isn’t just the expression of her inner emotions. All of us do that. Hana uses her music and artistry to give you a very clear glimpse into her soul…[which] provides light and insight towards her overall theme of healing. Few artists have the vocal and writing ability to make music focused on healing and self-improvement catchy enough to belong on the radio, but Hana is able to do that and so much more not only through her recorded music, but even more so through her live performance.”
- Amanda McCarthy, Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter
"Hana Kahn is a fiercly passionate musician whose mighty vocals bewitch audiences with a dangerous combination of sweetness and strength. The power of her voice is matched only by the unwavering power of her convictions. Unabashedly using her music to share her battle with mental illness and personal struggles, Kahn bravely holds up a magnifying glass to her journey in a successful attempt to empower others to discover the voice and the self-love they've been searching for."
- Hailey Magee, Founder/Consultant of Talisman Music Group; Founder/Director of EBASS (Emerging Boston-Area Singer-Songwriters)
"Hana is that combination of a shamelessly honest poet and a powerhouse vocalist. Her songs range from emotional life struggles, love, and just plain fun, but it's the message between her notes that's most important and that's a message of positivity. She reminds her fans that no matter what their struggles are, they are not alone."
- John Shea, Radio Personality 95.9 WATD |
