We'll start by passing the mic to Parabola West to introduce Hannah:
"Have you experienced the magical way that music can instantly transport you into a different era, setting, or mood? As you listen to Hannah, escape with me into her enchanted realm – a timeless place full of mystery and magic. Relax, exhale, and let the full moon lure you in."
And tonight's full moon is a very special one - there will be a partial eclipse tonight which turns the moon red, most visible around 10pm tonight.
Hannah is out today on all main digital music services: Amazon, Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Pandora, YouTube Music and more, via CD Baby.

On listening to ‘Hannah’, you’ll realise that Parabola West is quite unlike any other artist creating music in New Zealand right now. Melding art with science, the past with the present, she creates something quite unique.
"A sublime blend of folk and electronic influences which is taken to another level when combined with the beautiful and haunting vocals of Amy Tucker. Part Eivør, part CHVRCHES, but very much original" — AnalogueTrash
About Hannah
Caught between the physical and spirit worlds, Hannah has dabbled too much, wandered too far, and is lost. Will she lure those who search for her into the same fate?
West says, “Recorded at A=432Hz for healing frequencies [the standard frequency is A=440hz], the song features medieval instruments such as hurdy-gurdy, Nyckleharpa, and timpane, as well as modern production tricks to make it a bit spooky and darkly ethereal. I’m releasing ‘Hannah’ on the full moon of November 19th for maximum lunar power – let’s manifest it!”
Hannah is the second single in 2021 to be released release ahead of Parabola West's debut album, which will be a beautifully rendered multimedia fantasy art project that promises to be a feast for the eyes and ears of her fans.
The song was produced by Scott Newth of BLKHUS Studio and mastered by Chris Chetland of KOG Studio. The music video for Hannah was shot by local filmmaker Andy Duggan in West's hometown of Raglan and stars the rugged West Coast beach.
